For this first one I've used these pretty flowers from Clearly Besotted - I'm reasonably new to this brand and I must say I'm loving their stamps!
Coloured with polychromos - of course I didn't have any blues to match my sparkly card so it took quite a bit of mixing and faffing about to get it sort of the same. I also didn't have any suitable sentiments so ended up using these old peel off gold stickers.

And this one uses my beloved LOTV stamp - I think my next challenge is to colour it something other than purple!

And I just had to share this tragedy! It was just one of those cards that didn't want to be made! I think it all went pear shaped when I decided to make my base the same shade of green as my holly, and I only have one green ink pad which is a horrible sludgy shade. I don't know why I haven't chucked it before now as I always hate it when I use it. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise that I dropped my ink pad on it before I had finished! On the bright side, at least I hadn't wasted gloss and glitter and gems on it too!

Your sympathy cards are so pretty. Purple is my favorite color, so I really, really love that second one. You were able to create some fantastic shading on those flowers. As for your disaster, I can't even count how many times I've dropped an ink pad or smudged a card with my inky fingers. It's so hard for me to just toss them in the bin, too. I usually spend WAY too much time trying to save them.
Sympathy cards are so hard to make on demand - these are just lovely! Thanks for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!
What a beautiful set of cards! Love those flowers! They are so pretty! Thanks for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
