When Skies are Grey

Who knew that grey could be so pretty? Diane did when she decided upon this theme.  This board is full of pattern texture and dimension. I did not pick one frame but all of them and tried to get different textures, patterns and dimensions.   

                           
                                         

Grey seemed a perfect color for a sympathy card, and sadly I have been needing more and more of them. The Frantic Stamper Die Frame Die is the perfect combination of different textures so I added dimension between the layers. A simple flower and a sentiment from Our Daily Bread finished the card.




If you participate in the challenge, you will have a chance to win this fabulous die. As usual the team has so many different and wonderful takes on this challenge so go take a look at DD Challenge Blog.
We want to see your Shades of Grey.

  4. Sorry that you needed to make a sympathy card. The layers of texture are a great contrast to the single soft and graceful flower that you placed on the side. If it is a single flower or a group of them, you are the winner.
