Going Grey with Sentiments


Today over at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations the theme is to use a sentiment as your main focal point.

 This happens to be one of the hardest cards to make, a sympathy card.  Never easy to pick that sentiment that best envelopes what you may be feeling.

I made this card for hubby's Aunt, she loves flowers and gardening and such a green thumb.  Hubby just returned form California last night as he flew back to attend the memorial service and funeral. 

The Mojo Monday sketch from last week worked beautifully with this card and these papers from My Mind's Eye are just stunning.

 


Hope you will join us at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations this week, can't wait to see what sentiments you use.
