A sympathy card

Gosh, where does the time go nowadays?!  It seems like it was only Bellarific Friday yesterday and it's come around again!  So this week we had a sketch to follow and here is my take on it...



This is a sympathy card as my husband's cousin died recently so no cuteness from me today.  This beautiful flower is called Rose with a Hearty Centre and I used BasicGrey papers and a sentiment is from the Lili of the Valley Handwritten Phrases set.

Next week's Bellarific Friday is "friends" - I can feel an Uptown Girl stamp coming out for that!  Send your creations to Em by next Thursday.

I gotta go now but I'll be back this weekend with my Lili of the Valley DT post - ttfn!
