Unfortunately today I need to send out a Sympathy Card, one of my daughter's friends lost his Grandfather yesterday.
I used today's sketch from Splitcoast, using the blossoms from the set "Easter Blossoms" ... I am NOT ready for this set to disappear and have my fingers and toes crossed for it to make it to the Big Idea Book & Catalog being released in July. I just feel like I haven't used it enough! Here's a close up of some of the details. I stamped with StazOn ink and then used a blender pen and Blushing Bride marker to get some dimension on the flower, then the circles are just made with SU punches and a little pearl accent in the centre. I really love how this turned out, just sorry that it's being sent at a time of sadness.

Hope to see you there,

Such a beautiful card for a sad occasion. The colours are perfect.
I agree with you - I hope Easter Blossoms is in the new IB&C too! I didn't get to use it enough. Shoot, I haven't even gotten to play with my new Summer Mini stamps, and I've had them for a while now. That's what I call an irresponsible crafter! Very pretty card. ;)
