For this week's challenge I decided to make a sympathy card. My darling SIL is soon to be with our Lord and I thought I would make this card for the family while I still had my emotions in check. It also gave me a chance to break out my SU Watercolor Crayons that I haven't used in simply years. I colored my stamp with the crayons and then misted with water before stamping. My sentiment is from SU's Three Little Words. I added a few tiny pearls under my sentiment and in the middle of the two largest flowers. Thanks so much for looking ladies.

I am so sorry to hear about your SIL. This is a beautiful card, which I am sure gave you a sense of peace in making. Definitely from the heart and full of your talents to share with her dear family. Hugs to you all. You will be in my prayers.

Mary, I am sorry to hear of your impending loss. It's a hard time, I know. Your card is exquisite and the "watercolored" bouquet turned out spectacularly. Love the 3 little pearls as a delicate touch.
