Cross and Blossoms

I purchased this stamp several years ago.  I was at a LSS and saw some beautiful examples using Cross and Blossoms by Paper Inspirations.  Since then, I have used it so many times, for sympathy and Easter cards.  A friend wants to buy some sympathy cards, and this is one of a selection for her.  I have used 6 tear drop pearls, some lace and ribbon, and a bit of glitter along the lace.  The image is stamped on a very pale lavender cs.
Inside:  May you find strength in your faith, comfort in God's love, and peace in knowing your friends are praying for you.

Oh, Dorothy, this is beautiful, and this image is absolutely stunning with the cross so faintly in the background! And these colors are perfect for it, along with the beautiful ribbon and lace! And, yes, the pearl drops (all six) add a sweet finishing touch! It's always so wonderful to see you for the ODBD Shining the Light challenge, sweet friend! Big hugs!
