Color Throwdown #345 Sending Prayers

Do you struggle with sympathy cards?  I definitely do.   It's so important to get the right look to these card.  So when I saw THIS wonderful card by Nerina I instantly bookmarked it.   Her card is perfectly elegant...I couldn't wait to make my own version!

I decided to use Color Throwdown's newest challenge colors. 


When I think of red and green colors together I think of Christmas so I was  careful not to pick any flower that resembled a poinsettia when completing my card.

I used Papertrey Ink's Harvest Berries for the focal element of the card.  Just as Nerina did I embossed the darker vines.  The red flower is from PTI's honey bees and the sentiment is from PTI's beautiful butterflies

Thanks for stopping by!  Please come back again!
