As normal when you want to do something different Mr Mojo decided he didn't want to appear - so I have CASE'd and put my slant on a card I saw on Pinterest earlier this year done by Nikki Spencer - I suppose this is quite a severe colour combo but I like it - although yellow is not normally a colour I use a lot.
I layered the flower (from SU's Bloom With Hope set) to give some depth and coloured with Inktense pencils- the leaves were cut with an 'emboss and cut' punch and I used another stamp from the same set for the background.
The sentiment stamp is an old one as is the embossing folder I used on the dark grey pearlised card.
This is another card for the 'stash box'.

I think Winter has arrived here in my part of the world - it really is cold and the fields at the back of the barn are already white with frost. Perfect excuse to try and find Mr Mojo in the craft room I think! Thanks for visiting. x

Lovely card Viv

Really lovely card, gorgeous flower and great layout.
I sympathize totally with you I was 31 when my Mum died and the number of things I have wanted to ask her, tell her, is unbelievable, she was only 58 and I still do talk to her now and sorry for being so morbid but the last thing she said was "oh Mother, help me?" so she was thinking about her Mother, while she was so ill.
Not a happy post, sorry.

I love yellow, I've used it a lot on my cards as it's one of my favorite colors. The flower looks beautiful, I like how you left the leaves and stems uncolored. The embossed gold panel adds a touch of elegance. It's a very pretty card.
A beautiful card Viv, love those words.
