LIM 4 Years, HA Nature and ATS Anything Goes

This has to be one of the CASest cards I've ever made.  The challenge at Less is More is to make a pink and gray card and I had an idea right away.  BTW  Less is More is celebrating their 4th Anniversary, so congrats are in order for Chrissie and the Design Team.


Soft Stone cardstock from PTI is the background for my Hero Arts flower and sentiment, both stamped with HA Charcoal Gray.  I colored the flower, first with my white pencil and then with Distress Inks.  I think this will make a wonderful sympathy card.

I'm also entering this into the Hero Arts "Nature" challenge and at Addicted to Stamps in their "anything goes" challenge.

Thanks for stopping by.  The temperature will hit an all time low tomorrow so I think I'll hunker down and get some crafting done.  I have a quilt I need to get working on, which I was going to do today until too many things got in the way.
