Unfortunately my neighbor passed away this week after a long battle with Parkinson's Disease. She and her husband were such an inspiration to me and my friends. We would see them walking each day hand in hand enjoying their time together in retirement. We would all remark how we hope we will be doing the same thing - enjoying outings and holding hands with our husbands.
I made this card using the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches - I will also post it on the Paper Players challenge which features a flower themed challenge.
Stamps - Simply Soft, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink - Stazon black, marina mist, baja breeze, pear pizzazz, wild wasabi, sahara sand
Paper - Pocketful of Posies DSP, very vanilla, not quite navy card stock
Accessories - Oval dies, Square Lattice embossing folder, dimensionals
