CASology #373: September

 Hello friends! I haven't played along over at CASology in soooo long and I just about missed the deadline on this one.  It has long been a favorite challenge of mine and I hope I can play more often in the future. 

Every year since September 11, 2001, I make a card to let someone know I am thinking of them. When I saw that the theme this time was September, I thought I would link my card up.  This year I used a photo of the Twin Towers and the Lights as inspiration to pay tribute to those lost.

I know it's a somber entry, but it's personal for me and my family.  September is not our "happiest" month.  I blended a DI Concord Preserves night sky and had masked off the tribute lights for each of the towers.  I used Tumbled Glass for the tower lights.  I splattered some shimmer spray and the 'Cityscape' die cut is from Savvy Dies, backed with white for night lights.  The sentiment is from Simon Says. I know the recipient will understand what I was trying to do. 

Thanks for visiting.

Hugs,

Annie

The Paper Players #486: Jaydee's Color Challenge

Hello!  Back again with another card today for the latest challenge over at The Paper Players:

Such a pretty and soft color combination!  I thought I would go with a sympathy card and I still had Stampin' Up's Beautiful Friendship stamps on my desk.  I just love the images in that set, especially the hydrangea.  My previous home had 10 Nikko Blue hydrangeas along one side that were so beautiful.  The Seaside Spray ink color captured that memory perfectly!

Thanks for stopping by ~ I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

Hugs,

Annie
