Inspired By: With Deepest Sympathy



Have you seen one of the newer challenges in town? Inspired By:  All the Little Things? I am in love with this challenge. So many soft, delicate inspiration photos.  And...guess what?  This week I was invited to play along as a guest designer by Tracey.   The inspiration photo certainly reminds me of the first buds of spring where it is a little cool out, but the spring sunshine causes the blooms to start.



For my card, I at first thought I wanted to go with a lilac base, but quickly picked up more of the pinks embossing the PaperSmooches flowers in white. I then stamped the sentiment and die cut the panel. The card was finished off with vellum and a soft gray card base. Love the end result!

Please come on over to Inspired By and play along with us!

This is beautiful, Lynn. The pink was the perfect choice, and your embossing in white is just lovely here. Love the wonky stitched die; it's wonderfully subtle on your panel. The grays are the perfect finishing touch. Sweet card. Happy Sunday. Bev

Thanks for joining us at Inspire By as guest designer! So funny about you putting things away, my kids know if they want their precious things safe, they better put them away themselves or I may never remember where I put it! Best solution to a clutter free home:)
