It is a real challenge to keep things flat these days, isn't it, Kirsty? I absolutely LOVE what you did with your card. It is simply and elegant, and very beautiful.

A beautiful sympathy card, Kirsty! Such pretty delicate flowers! It is perfect for mailing and the recipient will love it!

Great idea for this challenge theme! I send many of my handmade cards overseas, so the postage is already expensive, and then it's worse if I have to pay a surcharge for extra bulk as well. Therefore, I love flat cards.

Your card turned out so pretty and dainty, and the swirl gives it a sense of motion.

Hello Kirsty! Even flat your card is elegant and just right for the challenge! Pretty colors!

Do you use stamps in the inside when you send them, more sentiments or do you just write in them? I never know what or how much to put in the inside.

I bet your even hotter there then we are, hang in there friend.
