This color combination is all credit to Kelly (atomicbutterfly). She put together a WONDERFUL card in the Fan Club gallery with snowflakes and I loved how the colors looked. The coolness of the colors does lend itself well to the blending in the watercoloring.
Piercing rows on the Basic Gray, and Floral bk around the greeting to frame it and on the Soft Sky mat. Trimtastic is pierced to give it the look of lace. Dimensionals to raise the sentiment.
Sadly, this is the second sympathy card I have to give to my friend, her dad passed away in June and very suddenly her mom passed away last week. I thought this image had that look of a little girl's wistful and tender memories to it. Many times our words are lacking, but my heart and prayers are with her.

So soft and sweet- your watercoloring is truly amazing and has a very special feel to it. Your friend will definitely feel your thoughts even without words.
