Black & White


 Hello friends and Happy Saturday!

I've been working on several sympathy cards lately ... seems to be the most requested (next to birthday cards) these days.  How sad is that!  Anyways, I thought I share one with you today and play along in the challenge over on 613 Avenue Create Challenge.  Their theme is Anything Goes with an Optional  Twist of Black & White.

 I spent some time the other day creating some 3D embossed background panels for these cards.  The folder I've used here is the Lisa Horton - Alstroemeria 6x6 embossing folder.

These days/weeks/months are sure flying by!  Geesh!  LOL

As always ...

  6. Absolutely beautiful! I love that there's an Alstroemeria folder. I have them in the backyard. Pull them out every year after they bloom and they grow back the following year in abundance. This is a very special sympathy card.
