Challenge #51 at PPC

Good Monday morning! Usually I am at home typing up my post the morning of our challenge. Today, I am hopefully enjoying my third day in Florida. Boy am I hoping that the weather is nice. As I am typing this it is snowing here. Thanks to everyone who has played this last week. all of your creations that I saw before my family left were so awesome.

Megan has a challenging color combo for us this week at PPC. This is my hardest color combo but I must say I am very happy with how my card turned out. Thanks Megan for making us step out of our box.

The sketch I used to help me out is an old one from Techno Stamper - her past sketches as well as her new ones are great.

Here is my card! Unfortunately the night before we left I was told that my friends mom had passed away and her funeral was going to be a few days later. My heart goes out to her and her family. As I was doing my challenge cards, I decided to make this one into a Sympathy card. It is not your usual colors, but I hope the colors will warm her and comfort her. All stamps are from Verve.

Please come join us at Picture Perfect Creation Crafty Challenges. We love seeing your work and I will enjoy looking at them when I get back. Our other DT members have some more inspiration for you.

have a great week and thanks for stopping bye.

  3. Oh very nice Tamie, and by Lori's FB comment to me yesterday, everyone has a burn, so yes the weather must be great, have fun, and enjoy that sunshine. Onto the card, lovely job. I like that stamp set, and the colors work very well for a Sympathy card. They are hard to make, but you did a great job! TFS!

  8. What a beautiful sympathy card, Tamie. Those are always so difficult to make, especially when you need it right away and for someone near & dear to you. Very classy!
