I'm the color hostess this week and I've chosen 3 neutrals to play with - white, grey and sand - I know - sounds bland - but I like the quiet of neutrals once in a while and I think we can do a lot with it - don't you??!!
I made a sympathy card with my colors today - using wide stripes of white and grey and accents of sand - with the scallop strip, the banner and the Amana Circle die cut.
I used the Saturday Waltzingmouse Sketch for my card.
So come along and play with the neutrals this week! I can't wait to see what you create!

I love the details in this card - the little scallop border anchoring the pennant...the beautiful die circle die ... and the sentiment font is gorgeous!

Julia, what a beuatiful and elegant card in the colors of today! Great choices on your part. Love the deep embossing of the dark gray....stunning. The die cut medallion is a beautiful focal point.

Very creative design that works so well with today's neutrals! The bg texture is great and I love how you did the scalloped edge and dotted banner with the sentiment on it..clever way to display it!
