Deepest Sympathy

Hello - I am back with another card to share, created using some of the hand designed paper from my dear friend and artist Laura Kirste.

 

 The paper is created using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Inks.  The images are retired stamps also designed by Laura Kirste.

The sentiment has been stamped using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® VersaFine™ Archival Pigment Ink full ink pad in Onyx Black and layered into the Gold Majesty Circles Spellbinders® Imperial Gold die templates #4 - remembering Spellbinders number their Dies from the smallest to the largest - the smallest being #1.

The bling is Want2Scrap© -Beautiful Bling Borders by Nina Brackett - Beautiful Blooms

My flower has been cut from some lace remnants I have been given and a paper rose has been added to the center.

Lots of details but not too bulky for posting.

This card is for the following challenges: 

Lady Anne's Stamp Challenge - anything goes 

Simon Says Stamp - must stamp 

Bunny Zoe's Crafts - Something Blue
