My dear friend died unexpectedly so it's been a bit since I was here with my online friends. This took me a while to make as my heart wasn't in it... It's a simple card for her daughter's family. Navy top fold card with a muted DP in blues. Added a white strip with a matching blue layer, offset. I stamped a flourish, then cut my stamped oval and fussy cut a narrow navy layer for framing. Finished with a small flower on the stamped oval.

You say "simple" but it's anything but that. Your dp is elegant and understated and just the right touch of somber with so much beautiful (now I want to try and make my own dp from that). Your white layers are the perfect offset to the dp and the single flower is so poignant. I think your "heart" is clearly evident in this design and the comforting words from your inside sentiment. Your friend's daughter and family will be deeply touched. So sorry for the loss of your dear friend. Big Hugs. Fav'd for future CASE.
