For Your Inspiration #22

It's already time for the next For Your Inspiration challenge.  I cannot believe how quickly two weeks fly by.  Remember, you have until Wednesday, February 1 to join us for this challenge.  Just create any project based on the photo below.  Be sure to let us know what elements of the photo you drew your inspiration from.

Here is the inspiration photo:

And here is the card I made based on the gorgeous picture:


I used Papertrey's Through the Trees stamp set along with the Alpha Blocks die to create a window card.  I love the simplicity of this card.  I often find it difficult to create a good sympathy card when I need one, so I'll file this away to have on hand.

Please take a moment to visit the rest of the FYI Design Team to see their lovely projects.  Their links are on my sidebar.  What a talented team of ladies we have!





All supplies from Papertrey Ink unless stated.

Stamps:   Through the Trees
Paper:   Certainly Celery, white (SU)
Ink:   Orange Zest, Summer Sunrise, Dark Chocolate
Other:  Alpha Blocks die, rustic jute twine

Love the tree behind the window. I had kind of forgotten about that die. I also like making sympathy cards when I don't need them...find it easier to be creative if I'm not sad at the same time.

Sara, this is perfection. I agree, Sympathy cards are difficult. You did a fabulous job with this one.
