Hey, everyone! Are you ready for another beautiful color combo from The Color Throwdown challenge? Our newest DT member Susie is our hostess this week and the generic colors she's chosen are Blue, Pink, and Green!
~
I needed another sympathy card but didn't want it to be dark and somber, so I decided to use these bright colors to send a little bit of love and cheer along with the heartfelt sympathy.

The floral dies are from Altenew, the geometric heart is from Sizzix, and the heat-embossed sentiment is from Papertrey Ink. (All links are in the supply list at the bottom of the post.)
I'm entering this card into The Flower Challenge #52 - Use embossing heat or dry. My sentiment is heat embossed.

Now it's your turn to play along with us! As you know, you can get all the challenge details at the CTD blog and there's also plenty of beautiful inspiration here at the DT blogs:

oh, my! I would never have thought of these colors for a sympathy card. This is GORGEOUS!! That heart with the “missing pieces” is perfect, as it is sorta how you feel when you lose one of your people. Love the rose. And the dark blue is so lovely and keeps it grounded without being gaudy. So sorry you needed another condolence card.

This is beautiful. I love the graphic feel of the heart with that beautiful paper pieced flower. Lovely design!

Your card with its cheerful colors would be much more uplifting to receive than something dark and somber. It was probably just the ticket. I love it, Broni!

Not your usual sympathy card but I think it would lift the recipients spirits, Broni. The colors are so bright and cheery and the design delightful. Thanks for sharing your card with us at The Flower Challenge.
