Ombre Teal

The challenge form Just U Girls this week is Shade of Teal:

I need a few more cards for my sister's birthday gift.  She likes cards that are encouraging and CAS.

I used Iced Spruce Distress Oxide to create the ombre effect on the heat embossed strip.  Since I didn't have the exact paper to match, I inked a piece of white paper before I die cut "Prayers".  I really like this layout with the inking for added interest.  Come play along with us at Words 2 Craft By where ur glass is half full!!
