So Sorry

 Hello Friends . . .

I hope all of you that were in the path of that CRAZY Snow/Ice storm over the weekend are safe & warm.  Here in Akron Ohio we got around 13-14" but luckily no ice, so it's 'manageable'. 

I thought I'd create a card to share this morning and since I just recently purchased another pack of these fun & fabulous Penny Black 'Premium Cardstock 3.25 x 4.5 design cards', that is what I chose for the focus image today.  This one comes from the 'Vintage Beauty' pack.

 


My background paper is from the Brutus Monroe 'PLAIDpetals' 6x6 paper pack and the sentiment is by The TON called 'Easy Expressions Sympathy'.  A strip of scrap card stock used behind the image and black Nuvo Crystal Drops were used as an added accent.

    So nice to see a beautiful floral card when all I see lately is lots of white SNOW, very refreshing card that hopefully you won't need soon!

    What a pretty card and those papers are gorgeous. It's perfect for an 'I'm sorry, or a sympathy card. Thanks for sharing with us at cardz4galz

    Oh, stop, this is too pretty! Is that more Brutus Monroe paper I need? I'd better start using what I have! Of course you know how I love Penny Black, too, sigh. Just lovely!
