I used the left vertical row for my project. Thanks to Arlene (A Bit of This and That) for printing me the floral panel - still no working printer at my house... I colored the image with Copic Markers and die cut the panel. The sentiment was printed on the panel already so I just added a few gems for interest. I die cut a glitter frame using two rectangles then inlaid the floral panel. Added it to a postal stamp diecut with just a bit showing for some texture. Layered it onto a black mat and onto the white card - done!
Now for a bonus card using wonderful stamps I just bought from Joy Clair Designs. I didn't read our sponsor info carefully and had purchased three clear stamp sets to use - oops! Oh well, wanted them anyway. I was especially eager to use a new sympathy set. A dear friend from my Sweet Adelines world passed away recently and I sent this card to her family. Ferne and I started as pen pals nearly 25 years ago, then we met in person at many conventions. RIP Ferne!!

I'm squeeking by on the left vertical row with 2+ Layers, Yellow and Flowers. When I made this card, somehow I only remembered the layering part & totally forgot about tic-tac-toe!! Luckily I used flowers & two of them are yellow...that's enough! Since my clear stamps got first play here, I'm adding to Darnell's April NBUS Challenge.
Thanks for visiting and I hope you'll join our April Diva challenge! Our random winner will receive 3 digital stamp sets.

Both cards are beautiful. Sorry you have to use a sympathy card for a dear friend. We make them, but we never want to use them.
Your paper choices for the backgrounds and frames really add to the overall beauty of these cards. So sorry for the loss of your friend.
Two truly lovely cards. I love the framing layers on the first and that gorgeous textured background on your second xx
Thanks for inspiring others by sharing your cards at NBUS, Linda.
Two fabulous cars Linda. Love the framing of your first flower card ... the gold really looks amazing with the yellow blooms. And such a fabulous second card with lots of texture and a little bling as well. So sorry to hear about your friend's passing. Sending hugs, Loll.
Beautiful cards, Linda! Always sad to loose an old friend. I know her family appreciates your card.
