This card is for today's sketch challenge. As few weeks ago I used this image from Gift of Love and this was my first coloring attempt. I did not use the image for that card so I had it sitting in my scrap box and thought if would work well for today's sketch. I stamped and embossed my greeting on a strip of vellum and folded it around by image piece.

Your coloring is beautiful. I love the flower where the green fades into the light purple. I also love the lines showing, which looks realistic to me, like the gradation of lines in a flower. This is really pretty. It will surely comfort the recipient when you send this hand-made card full of care and love for that sad occasion.

The minute I saw your card I thought how nicely the image fits in the panel. Good eye on that! Well done with the sketch. The colors and papers are beautiful. Expert coloring on the flower. Nicely done for a sympathy card, which are often a struggle to make and difficult to need. Lovely card. TFS
