Fusion Challenge: Textured Sympathy Card

Hi folks! We've got another Fusion! This time it turned into a challenging (for me) sympathy card.



The textured mustard and print are picked up from the photo, and the layout is loosely followed. I was really happy when the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Casual Trees die cut through the felt and remained intact. There's something about the thin cut of a textured material that gets me excited! The tiny, subtle Prima flowers have a pearl in the middle. A gold sentiment finishes it all off. I like making the subdued sympathy cards interesting by adding lots of different textures (felt, pearl, gold, newsprint, vellum).

As a reminder, here are the guidelines on the challenge:

1. Play with just the sketch challenge.
2. Play with just the inspiration photo challenge.
3. Or you can create FUSION by combining BOTH challenges into one card.
4. Use the challenge graphic and link back to Fusion in your post.
5. Please read the other considerations on the Our Rules Page before playing along.

Here are some fabulous cards by our design team!
