For those who are new to the Stamp Review Crew, here is a little background. We are an international group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators that gets together on the first and third Mondays of every month to do a blog hop. Each hop features a single stamp set to give you loads of inspiration for that set! The hops are archived at the Stamp Review Crew blog, and you will be able to click through each hop at any time, going directly to the posts for that hop whenever you want! And you can click on the banner of this post to go to the master blog roll for this hop also.
If you are following along in order, then you have just arrived from the amazing Heidi Bak's blog!
I was playing around with the flourish-y plant-like image in this set and ended up making a stamped, then sponged Ombre background with a bit of a Damask look to it. I never have enough sympathy cards, so that is where I went with this, and the strip of vellum allows some of the background to show through.
Inside got a lighter hand with the sponging and stamping, all just in the lower right corner.
This would make a great card for just about any occasion, and in several colors.
The next stop is Nikki Spencer, and I am sure that she will delight you with her project!
