Purple sympathy card

I've dipped into my unloved stash of DP for this card ... so it was never going to end well ;)
I think it looks a wee bit drab, though it looks a bit better in real life as I added some Wink of Stella on the flowers and some clear gems for a bit of sparkle.
I've used my sympathy-go-to-stamp from Whipper Snapper - coloured with watercolour pencils and clear gloss added to the flower centres.

I don't think your card looks drab, Lynne - it looks quiet and comforting. Just what is needed in a sympathy card. The flowers in a jar image is so perfect for a sad occasion.

Lynne, this is so beautiful. I love the color palette you used to create this. It could so easily be used with the sketch for feminine birthday or get well. Gorgeous! Thanks for playing with Pals Paper Arts.

Not drab at all, but soft and calm - the perfect thing for a sympathy card. Your coloring is spot on, and I bet the Wink of Stella looks fantastic in person. Thanks for playing along with Pals Paper Arts this week! Hope to see you again soon!
