Sorry to say, I had the need to create a sympathy card, my dear Sweet Friend's Grandmother passed away, and I am sending this off to her and her family with my deepest condolences.. My Mats and BG & Die cut Layers were created using a combination of brown CS from my stash and MME's Lost And Found Market Street collection & Echo parks This and That Graceful collection as well. I created my Sweet flower with the help of my Cricut and the Mother's Day Bouquet cartridge and a vintage peal brad. For my leaves, I got to use my New TE Leafy Branch Die. And to finish it up, I inked some of my edges with Vintage Photo distress ink, stamped my I/O sentiment with Memento Rich Cocoa onto a SB Tag die cut and layered on top of two SB Labels 14 die cuts and a kraft doily from my stash. 8-)
Here are the Wonderful CR84FN colors..
