Love & Sympathy

Happy Friday! Thanks to everyone who left me a comment yesterday with their own cooking mishaps. I'm so glad to know that I'm not the only one, and the stories put a smile on my face. Today's card was inspired by this week's Freshly Made Sketch.
I decided to flip the sketch so that I could use this flower image from the Love & Sympathy set.

That Wisteria Wonder is so calm and serene, especially when paired with Pear Pizazz. Here's a close-up of those pretty lil' flowers:

That's all I have for you today. Have a fantastic weekend!

Stamps: Love & Sympathy
Paper: Wisteria Wonder, Pear Pizazz, Whisper White, Berry Blossoms dsp
Ink: Wisteria Wonder, Pear Pizazz, Basic Gray
Accessories: Big Shot, Flower Fusion Sizzlit, Basic Pearls, Whisper White satin ribbon, Dotted Scallop Ribbon border punch
