C.R.A.F.T. Challenge # 306 - White on White (Only Color Your Image).

Welcome to a new C.R.A.F.T. Challenge!
 
This week we have a great theme for you: White on White - Color on the image only!!
 
This is my card:
 
 
My image is from Whoopsy Daisy colored with Copics and mounted on an embossed cardstock from Toga.
It was nice to use all this white on a card! I should do it more often!
 
Check what my teamies have created for this lovely challenge here on our challenge blog. You'll also find last week's winners and Top Three!

With Sympathy.

Some years ago I received an email from an Etsy customer pointing out how absurd was the tagging of one of my cards.
I actually added the "sympathy" tag to a card which was not meant for sympathy because I thought the word had the same meaning it has in Italian.
Stupid me not to have checked the dictionary!
 
I never managed to make a proper "for sympathy" card since I love cute whimsical images and they seem to be too much for such a delicate moment.
Luckily enough, I saw a stamp in Eat Cake Graphics shop which immeditely gave me the inspiration to make a sympathy card, poetic enough and not too sad or funny:
 
 
She is Jessica Holds a Flower: I colored her with Copics and mounted her on a small card with background papers from Graphic45. I  wanted to keep the card light and fresh, I love the smile on Jessica's face and the windy atmosphere, which for me is perfect for a sympathy card.
 
Isn't she cute?
