Happy Saturday, everyone! This week's Inspiration Challenge is to choose one of the projects from Audrie's Inspiration Genius Board over at Pinterest......I am so tickled that quite a few of my cards have made it there in the past!!! Unfortunately, I have many sympathy cards to make, for two different losses in the past week. I chose this gorgeous card by Julia Aston as inspiration.....I loved it so much that I used the same design for six different cards. The flourish vine is from 'Belles Vignes'; the sentiment is from 'Loving Memories'; the die cut birds are from the ODBD Custom Birdcage and Banner Dies set; the rectangles were cut from the ODBD Custom Pierced Rectangles Dies (the black die-cut panels were re-sized to match Julia's design). If you'd like to see each individual card, please visit this blog post. Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

Stunning! I also find sympathy cards very hard to do...yet the older I get the more often I seem to need them. Yours is the perfect blend of beauty and peace...very comforting!

I have a lot of trouble making sympathy cards as well, and this one is spectacular. You took Julia's card and brought it up a notch without making it fussy. Gorgeous.

Oh, Angie, this is beautiful, and I agree with others above that it's so tender and calming. Beautiful CASE of Julia's card and so very you as well! Hugs, sweet friend! xoxo
