Good Wednesday morning. My project today was made for the Splitcoaststampers Color Challenge to use all white to honor those who lost their lives last week in Connecticut, especially those darling children.
I recreated a card I made a few weeks ago and added candles. I love the Memory Box holly vine and think it is so soft and elegant paired with the window.
I used the Fancy Blossoms for the flowers to represent small poinsettias and added pine sprigs to fill and soften around the flowers. I thought the tiny white pearls in the flower centers were such a sweet touch although they are hard to see in the photo. I extended the candle a little so they would stand high enough to be seen in the window. This is so much prettier in person than in the photos.
Have a great day and thank you for stopping by. I appreciate all of your kind and supportive comments.
Paper: White Accessories: Memory Box Holly Vine , Fancy Blossoms , Poppystamps Grand Madison Arched Window , Martha Stewart Branch Punch, Candle Punch (retired) , Pearls , Glossy Accents , Mounting Tape , Craft Knife , Yellow Stickles, Stylus , Mat, Paper Piercer , Metal Adapter Plate,
What a lovely card, so beautiful

Kittie, this is absolutely gorgeous... the all white is so 'angelic' which is what comes to mind when one thinks about the little victims.... Thank you for sharing your creativity.... again, you are so amazing.
a quick question tho, do you use a die to make the candles or just cut some strips? And what do you use for the flame?

Oh Kittie: This card took my breath away. It is a wonderful memorial to all those souls. Yes, pure in it's color but overflowing with flowers, a universal sign for love. Thank you Kittie.
