I struggled at first with what to do with this sketch. But once I finally choose my stamps and started stamping it all came together pretty easily. I forget how much I like this stamp set. I stamped the branches first and then stamped and embossed the sentiment. Colored the flowers and leaves and then sponged with Weathered Wood. Finished with splatter of water, and drawn on splatters with markers and gel pen.
Hey. This is accidentally yesterday's colors! I'm adding that keyword...

The delicate nature of the branches really looks nice for a sympathy card, in my mind. Your coloring and sponging are so beautiful, it all works really well togther!

Oh, Jen! This is GORGEOUS! I love how beautifully these flowers are in the corners to fit the sketch challenge, and what a stunning way to use the colors this week! I love your background and the touches of white. Such a perfect card for one who has lost a loved one! Hugs! xoxo
