Congrats again, to Vickie! For this card, I chose her Blossom. I kept the black & white but added a little color, kept the oval but moved it a bit and added a double embossed white bg.
For my card, I'm using the new Our Daily Bread designs images, Francis of Assisi and Cat Sympathy. I stamped part of the Francis of Assisi image around the sentiment, colored it with markers and die cut with a Spellbinders classic oval. For the embossed white background, I used two embossing folders. First I used the one w/ the little bird then cut cardboard in the shape of the wreath (to keep it from embossing over the bird) and embossed again using the wreath folder. The corners were rounded and I added some black enamel dots to two corners. The black background was also embossed using a Spellbinders M-Bossabilities folder. I dyed the white ribbon using the Neptune ink pad. The finished card is 4.50 x 6.25 (A6).
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups and links are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Wonderful card, Julie! I love the combination of emb folders you used and the Kaisercraft Chapter One DP is one of my latest favorites! Very nice pet sympathy card!
