So Long, Wee Memories!
I'm really sad to see the Wee Memories challenges coming to an end although I understand Jenny's reasons for making the decision. Wee Memories holds a special place in my heart as it's the first challenge that I ever placed in! My ribbon flower was chosen as one of the Fab 4 last January. I was so excited to finally add a challenge blinkie to my sidebar. :) Anyway, the final challenge is a sketch challenge which almost sent me running in the other direction but I was determined to suck up my sketch fear and not miss out on this special event. I didn't really think about this before but I guess it's kind of appropriate to have made a sympathy card for the passing of the challenge! And look at all that patterned paper up there! It's from Basic Grey's Origins collection - yes, I have a lot of oldie goldies in my stash... The stamps are Hero Arts. My thanks to Jenny and the design team for all the fabulous challenges and inspiration and I look forward to seeing what comes next for you all! :)

Look at all the gorgeous patterned paper! I love it! Especially the stamping over it!
I think it's a lovely sympathy card. The papers are fab and I love the branch stamp.
What a perfect sympathy card with all that green! Love the leafy branch and the scalloped border!
Wow, so pretty, Jen! This is a card I would've liked to see in a magazine. ;)

Awesome sympathy card, and perfect for this sad occasion.... Love the different shades of green and especially stamping on DP!
Lovely layers and a lovely card. This type of card is always so difficult to make, but you have mastered it with this gem.
the paper is fabulous, really matches with other elememts
What a lovely sympathy card. The papers and image are perfect.
This is absolutely lovely!!!
Beautiful take on the sketch - they scare me too :) Never feel very confident with them.
Origins is one of my favourites - love how you used the different gridded papers, and the scalloped edge is fab.
totally perfect for their last challenge ... basic grey is definitely your go to for 2012 ... LOVING the patterns!
It's always sad when something comes to an end - perhaps you should start a new one! I love the way you've used lots of the same design DP in different colours.
gorgeous! love the different colors and patterns for a sympathy card.
