Time Out: Deepest Sympathy


Happy Thursday my friends. We are back at Time Out with a fabulous challenge.   I absolutely adore Tracey McNeely (In My Creative Opinion) and today we have the challenge of casing her card.  Her card featured a soft pastel background and a gorgeous embossed vellum flower. I loved the colors and the softness of the vellum. I think you can see pretty quickly how I was inspired.  We're so happy to have Tracey to inspire us.


So what do you think?  How does Tracey's card inspire you?


Be sure to pop on over to Time Out to play along with us!  And be sure to check out our guest designer Stemelfrida.
