Lovin' Silhouette Blooms!

I have been having such a great time with my Silhouette Blooms stamp set from CHF. I spent an hour on Wednesday putting together some fab creations, one of which I can share with you today and another next week. It's a good thing I get a few cards done every few days. I spent the good part of today in a vehicle and now I am exhausted. I guess that is what you get when you live in the sticks. You have to drive a long way to get somewhere. Of course the beauty of living in the sticks is the low population, the wilderness and NO traffic lights *lol*

Sympathy cards are the cards I like to make the least but that I like to have ready for those timeless moments. One of the benefits of Kim's new set is how versatile the set is. You can literally use Silhouette Blooms for anything! Wait until you see what I used it for next week!

Hi Alli,
A beautiful card that says so much!! In the photo it looks like the flowers on your focal image are debossed...is that an optical illusion? It's lovely, however you did it! Will you tell?

Thank you for sharing!

This is a beautiful sympathy card. It is so quietly elegant and serene. just the right feel for a sympathy card.
