FYI Challenge #8

Hi there. I love this card and at some point each one of us could use a card like this. This week's inspiration photo is here:




As soon as I saw it, I knew I wanted to somehow bring the texture of the mountains onto the card as well as keep the natural feeling of the photo.  


I decided to go with an encouragement theme because sometimes it feels like things are really bad and you're out of control, but if you just stay the course and possibly  "go over the edge", that things will get better. So, with that said, here is my card:
This was a pretty easy card to make. I basically made all of the pieces and then scrunched them up to give them that "natural" texture. Easy peasy.


I hope you'll join in with us this week and play! Thanks for stopping by.

Geez...I can't believe I'm so late commenting on your FYI card! You really captured the rock texture with your crinkled paper! That sprig of greenery is like a symbol of hope in the middle of rough times! Well done!
