A big congrats to Janette! Such a wonderful gallery and I spent a long time strolling her gallery pages until I chose her Watercolored Lily to case.
I kept the colors and lily as a main image, but I used different images, die cut my layers and changed the layout a bit.
I stamped the Calla Lily Sympathy once on my main panel and the only the lily image again on a separate piece. I added some color using Copic markers and cut the extra lily out to attach to the base lily. I used a Spellbinders Romantic Rectangle for the lily panel and I used a larger Resplendent Rectangle for the light green layer. I resized this layer using a technique I call Nestie resizing
in order to make it a little shorter in length. The sentiment was stamped across the bottom of the darker green panel before I attached to my 4.25 5.50 card and added a bow I made using a mini Bowdabra.
Congrats again, Janette and enjoy your week! Thanks for looking & details are on my blog: The Write Stuff

WOW is this a gorgeous card Julie!! I love the white and green. Your lacy edges are so pretty!! I always feel sad that sympathy cards have to be made, but it's a part of life unfortunately.
Wow Julie, such a special card. So many interesting layers and elements really set off the beautiful lily image.
