Two variations of Sympathy Card

The design team were been asked to do some Sympathy cards for The Fat Cats Card Corner, so I did these ones in two colour variations.  

The first one I did in Black, white and silver.

It is rather hard to see, but the black strip in the middle has been embossed with the Anna Griffin Rosa 5 X 7 embossing folder.  The silver and white flourish designer paper either side of it all framed with black on a white card base.  The centre oval is the Joy Crafts Fancy oval die which I sponged with silver around the centre.  The Sentiment is the Elizabeth Craft Designs die.

Behind the flowers is the Cheery Lynn Fanciful Flourish die, and the little leave are a Marianne Creatables Anja Leaves 1 die LR0226.  The black flowers are made with the Cheery Lynn Build a flower Dies set #3, the silver edged roses are made with a six petaled flower punch.  The little flowers with the black centres are made with two sized small and mini 5 petal flower punch.

The second one is the same embossing folder, a different designer paper, and the same oval die and sentiment.  This one I put the flowers and flourish punch around the top.  The centre mauve and the bottom mauve flowers again were using the Cheery Lynn Build a flower #3, the roses were made the same but this time I didn't put the very centre part in but put some pearl stamens.  Then the small 5 petal paper punch for the white flower with the mauve centre, which I did with some Mauve puff paint.
