I'm back in blogland after a much needed break and holiday away in the sun. Now I'm back home, to cooler temperatures and grey clouds, which is perfect weather conditions for spending time in the craft room and visiting others blogs!
Over at Try it on Tuesday
our new challenge theme is "Use 3 colors".
I made a one layer sympathy card using the faux embossing technique and the colors kraft, brown and white. The sentiment is heat embossed. The flower stamp is from Penny Black.
Please head over to the challenge blog to see the my TioT teamies have made and to get more inspiration.
