I'm channeling Katharine Hepburn! Her famous quote is from the 1937 film Stage Door. She goes on to say 'such a strange flower, suitable for any occasion.' My stamp (DRS, I think) has 'in deepest sympathy' around it. One never knows when one might need a sympathy card. I clear embossed over black ink and then watercolored with metallic watercolors. I like simple sympathy cards so I didn't want to do too much more with this. Here is my inspiration: http://www.lucinda.com/shop/product/calla-lilies/
PS this card is a bit more faded looking than in real life. the blue around the lilies is a nice light blue.

Oh, it's definitely always useful to a sympathy card ready for when you need it. Great pairing of the lilies with that ef, they look really good together.
