And there will be fun little give-away too boot! So sure hope you will join in all the fun! And be sure to stop over at the CR84FN Blog for all the Details! 8-)
So sorry to say I found myself in need of a sympathy card this week. A Dear friend of ours passed away unexpectedly and I created this for his Sweet Wonderful Girlfriend.. My heart just breaks for her, they were so Wonderful together and Loved each other Very much. He was a sailor so I thought the image very appropriate, and the soft colors remind me of her, so this was a good match, much like their own relationship..
My SNSS image was stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa onto a square of Cosmo Cricket Love Notes dp and I added a touch of shading with Vintage photo distress ink around the edges. All my mats and BG layers were created with ivory CS and more dp's from Cosmo Cricket's Love notes collection. To finish it all up I just stamped my I/O Sentiment directly onto my BG.. I Kept this one Very CAS to let the image and Pretty colors do the talking..
Here are the Beautiful CR84FN Colors...
For all the CR84FN Challenge details, please be sure to visit the CR84FN Blog. And Of course, please do go and check out the Wonderful creations the rest of the Super talented DT has Cooked up for your inspiration...8-) l Sure hope you can join us!
