This is the card that I made for today's brand new challenge - Free for All. Unfortunately I am in need of a sympathy card to send to a cousin who recently lost her Mom. The first time I looked at the Stampin' Up color palette I was drawn to Earth Elements but for some reason I have never used any of them except the browns and old olive. So for today's challenge I thought I would use my least favorite of the lot - more mustard and paired it with not quite navy (another color I have not used before). Surprisingly I think it turned out quite pretty. I stamped 3 of the elegant ornament patterns in more mustard and then covered them with versamark and ultra thick ep. After creating the glassy finish I cut them out and triple mounted them. This was then mounted on a piece of dp. The sentiment was cut out using the cricut. I used part of a cuttlebug embossed border for the corner and added some gems. Thanks for the interesting new challenge and thanks for looking.
