I needed another sympathy card for a close friend who lost her mom to cancer! I stamped the main image in VersaMark and then colored with chalks. Neat technique! Stamped the sentiment with Basic Black then cut & emb. w/ Nestabilities Oval. Matted w/ Wild Wasabi Scallop Oval. The side panels are Wild Wasabi punched w/ SU Scallop Border and topped with Pink Pirouette. Added flat backed pearls on some of the flowers and added a Pink Piroutte designer button. I'm pleased with how this turned out and hope my friend finds comfort in it!
Edited to add: My finger hit enter before I could add this link. This card was inspired by Silke Ledlow's card at the following link: http://silkeledlow.blogspot.com/2009...ng-of-you.html
I had the main image done but didn't know what to do with it until I saw Silke's card.... I absolutely fell in love with it. I thank you for your kind words but if it wasn't for Silke's inspiration this would not look like it does!!!

Very pretty. Love your colors and design.
