I have been away for a couple of days so just catching up with the CAS Challenge tonight. This week Gail chose our challenge which is to use neutrals. I inked up an acrylic block with Sahara Sand, sprayed lightly with a water mister, and stamped onto vanilla c/s. I stamped the tree in Early Espresso onto this. Adhered to Early Espresso c/s with scalloped border and added the ribbon, candy dots and sentiment. Scored the right side of the card.
TFL!

Serene and elegant sympathy card, Sue. Love how you did the acrylic block bg for the silhouetted image. The scoring on the right edge is a beautiful detail.
