My neighbor - who introduced me to stamping - lost her husband last week, so I needed a really special card for her. I had the calla lillies (Mike's) - they seemed to go with the ribbon and the sentiment. Added Itty Bitty Backgrounds in Purely Pomegranate and Choc Chip - distressed the edges with the cutter tool. The flowers are really small - the card size is standard A2.
Sorry for the wonky photo!
Thanks for looking!

What a beautiful card!! It's just stunning!!! I love the lily and the beautiful ribbon . What a special card for you neighbour who just lost her husband...so sad.
That card is striking! I would never have thought of putting those peace lilies onto a card. TFS -- and a merry Christmas to you!

WOW what a gorgeous card! So sorry to hear of friends loss, I'm sure she appreciated this card enormously! Beautiful use of lilies and ribbon and the pomegranate and chocolate chip go beautifully together. TFS
