With Sympathy
It's Friday, so that means another Raise the Bar challenge. Since we're headed toward a special Memorial Day holiday weekend, Joni is challenging us to create a sympathy card - in remembrance of someone that we've lost. I used the Color Throwdown colors - a great combo from Broni - Black, gray, lime green. I'm also using the layout for the MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge. This is a clean, simple card...neutrals with just a pop of color. The Green Galore CS is retired but I've still got a stash I'm hoarding. It's a green that I always regretted seeing them discontinue. The doily lace border and the layered dies with the sentiment are all Die-namics from MFT. Spellbinders' Foliage Shapeabilities are some of my fave new dies! The floral trim is a new find at Mike's...love that they are adding more decorative lace trims to their ribbon section!
STAMPS: Forever In Our Hearts (Verve0
PAPER: DP by American Crafts, Black, Basic Gray, White,
Green Galore
Off to do some more cleaning...looking forward to our son and DIL visiting as they move from Atlanta to northern VA this w/e! After a TON of rain the past week...it's SO good to see the sun out! Thanks for stopping by...as always, I love reading your comments!

Beautiful colors - I was able to play in this color challenge too! Thanks for the heads up -- your sample is so pretty and I am hoping to play in that challenge too!! I am running out of time --:(
Another awesome card Wanda! Love what you did with those colors. I was scared and decided I wasn't brave enough to tackle them. Well done!
