Blue Sympathy

Happy November!  We've had the most glorious sunny day, here's hoping the rest of the month is just as good!  Got a little bit of gardening done, and bucket after bucket of leaves lifted ... the trees at the back garden are nearly bare now, so hopefully that's the end of that!

This card uses one of my favourite stamps for a sympathy card (from Whipper Snapper).
I've coloured it with watercolour pencils and Wink of Stella added to the flowers.  Die-namics scribble dies.  Paper Smooches sentiment.  Ooooldie DP from stash, I think this stuff is from one of the first paper stacks I ever bought!  Clear gems from stash.

I like the way you've embellished this card with two of the scribble die-cuts. It adds some nice, quiet dimension.

Loving your prettily coloured card with it's soft blue tones and the die cut rose. This type of card is always so hard to make I find. I haven’t been able to play along with our sketches for a few weeks now but I’m delighted you joined in with my teamies at Sketch Saturday this week with this lovely card. Hugs, Lesley
