I'm so excited to have the opportunity to share something I made using Unity Stamps every day this week. I will be drawing a name next Monday (3/31) from the comments to receive TWO free Itty Bitty stamp of your choice. To increase your chances of being drawn make sure you comment every day. That's it!
I wanted to make a sympathy card from this fabulous set Vintage Scripture. I love the ornate frame that comes with it. I decided to go with a vintage look of verdigris so I stamped in Island Indigo first and then stamped with Encore Gold right over the top. I gave it a good sponging with Baked Brown sugar and matted it with Early Espresso cardstock. I customized a doiley by inking it with the Encore gold stamp pad and gave it plenty of time to dry. Lastly, I added both elements over the top of some paper from Basic Gray that just happened to match perfectly.
Don't forget to comment and stop by again tomorrow for more GIU by yours truely.

What a lovely card - so perfect for sympathy one. Your colors are wonderful and all just go so well. What kind of ink are you using? Really like the finish.
