I am not much of a "purple person" so this color challenge from Betty was exactly that for me. I decided to go with a Sympathy card - which are extremely difficult to make when you need one, so I can begin building up my supply on-hand #one of my crafty new years resolutions# for when needed.
I figured a floral theme would be perfect with plums #pun intended#. ;)
I am THRILLED Stampin' Up! came out with markers in the in-colors - I hope they continue to do this! SO convenient and easy to use! I colored the flowers with markers sort of using the thumping technique to blend the colors of the petal a bit.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my card and thank you Betty for challenging me with this color combination.

Perfect layout for a sympathy card. Way to go using the in-color markers to make this challenge! I like how you used them to color that lovely branch stamp. Great job with these challenge colors!
