Congratulations to this weeks Featured Stamper, Maureen, aka mamamostamps! Maureen's clean style is just what I needed to inspire me for a sympathy card and I chose her card found HERE. I kept the layout with the houndstooth embossing across the bottom but changed it to a white bg. I also changed it by adding my sentiment with a scored and popped up panel and colored the image instead of using a stamped silhouette. I'd always thought that lenten roses were a pale pink until I checked out photo's on the internet and saw there were some which were a deep, deep pink which is what I went for.

I am in awe of people who can color images like you can! JUST beautiful. It has such a clear crisp feeling to it and the shades of pink just pop off the page! Love it..

Just gorgeous, Bridget! Beautiful coloring and texture along with the clean, crisp look create a comforting sympathy card. I love the scored lines above and below the sentiment...it's the little extra details that add to the elegance of your card!

Oh my, this is just awesome.... Reminds me of some flowers that my Mom had when I was growing up and she would do just like your image, put them in a glass of water... Love your colors on this one... TFS
