Beau Chateau Sympathy

This card takes in three challenges: still addINKtive #3, Fab Friday #11 sketch challenge, and The
Paper Players #131-Sympathy Theme.
I LOVED the color combo at still addINKtive and knew I wanted to play along....and I am making it just under the wire!!!  The Fab Friday sketch this week was, well, fab and I am alway in need of a sympathy card, so that was easy to incorporate, as well!  The swirled pink and suede paper is from the retired Beau Chateau pack and was a no brainer pick for these colors....the rest fell into place from there.

 



Here's a list of my supplies...
Stamps: Card Chatter-Sympathy (CTMH)
Paper: Pink Pirouette, River Rock, Soft Suede, Vanilla, Beau Chateau DP
Ink: River Rock, Soft Suede
Accessories: Honeycomb EF, Bird Builder punch, flower trim, Pink Pirouette gingham ribbon, pearls
 
Thanks for taking a peek!

  1. Oh wow! This is beautiful. I completely forgot that Beau Chateau had the right colour scheme for the challenge - duh me, as I love it. You've got a great mix of embossing, DSP and accessories which has produced a very classy card. Thanks for playing along at still addINKtive.
