This weeks SCS Inspiration Challenge comes from one of my favorite catalogs ... Signals. I chose this lovely Marushka Bamboo T-Shirt to inspire my sympathy card design.
I embossed Bamboo on Grey Cardstock and then rubbed on a combination of grey ink, white ink, and metallic rub-ons until I got the effect I wanted. The sympathy stamp is from a new-to-me company Deadbeat Designs.

Your combo of inks to get that effect on the bamboo is WOW!! You really achieved a soft and beautiful wash on top of the darker grey tones. What a beautiful, heartfelt verse to finish off this tender sympathy design, Steph.
