Congratulations on being selected Queen today - you have such a lovely gallery and you leave such great comments. I really liked this card - some of my supplies are dwindling - will be nice to replenish when we get back to our home at the end of summer! Anyway, I had to improvise some aspects, but I think I kept the tone of your lovely card: IC290, Cherish Friends, SUO by Jenna Barber at Splitcoaststampers
I was not sure what technique you used - I sponged chalk to lightly shade the white areas.
I was also inspired by the muted tones of this challenge - in a roundabout way, by the candles as well - we have visited a lot of European cathedrals, with lots of statues, including angels - and lots of candles. http://stamptacularsundaychallenge.blogspot.com/

A beautiful card, Dorothy. I like that you did it in "stone" tones.....as you mentioned, like the angels and statues you have seen in the cathedrals of Euope. Lovely embossing and framing.
