I had some accidents with Enamel Accents this morning and couldnât do anything to fix it. HA! I think we need some time apart. Flowers are tough for me which is why this set was on my never used list. I donât know what happened here. You know my general style is to throw things at my card to see what sticks and Iâm generally happy with the results of slapping things together. I expect I will be finding some way to remake this card in the future...

I missed most of your Nuvo drops at first glance as I was SO focused on the one that was shaped like a tear drop ( so appropriate for a sympathy card.) I like that intricate stamped border below your basket, too. Overall a nicely put together card, Jen, but I know the feeling of being your own worst critic - it's how I felt about my Heart strings card last week.

I have no enamel accents, so I had to re-look at your card. Looks like some of it got away! I like your card.....the bit of coloring of the roses is so nice. The linen color is wonderful!

So much to like about this sympathy card, Jen - funny how we are our own harshest critics! I love the colours, beautiful rose image & the stamped intricate border! The enamel dots look fine, it's all part of creating a hand made card~

I think this use of this soft yellow color on this.

Ooh la la! This is such a lovely vintage sympathy card Jen. I really love the pattern at the bottom of the card that reminds me of a really lovely lace tablecloth. This has french couture written all over it. I like your enamel accents because they draw your eye right to this beautiful basket of flowers. ~Karen.

So sweet, Jenn. Love the border. I don't even attempt enamel accents - we are not friends. The card is pretty regardless of them though. Hugz
