Stairway of Memories - Zva Creative July Blog Hop

Welcome to the Zva Creative July Blog Hop! If you arrived here from Robin's Blog, you are in the right place, if not you might want to start at Zva Creative Blog, so that you don't miss any of the designers beautiful creations! Hidden along the hop are FIVE Zva Creative prize packages, so it's important to leave a comment on as many blogs as you can along the way. Winners will be randomly chosen after the hop is over.  If you are looking to purchase Zva Creative products, you can find a list of stores and online retailers that sell Zva Creative products here.

Inspired by this weeks Retro Sketches Sketch, I used Pink Paislee pattern paper along with one of the sentiments from Our Daily Bread Designs Sharing in you Sorrow set to create a sympathy card.
Stamps - Our Daily Bread Designs (Sharing in your Sorrow) Pink Paisley Pattern Paper, Crystals/Flourish Zva Creative
The sentiment is stamped in Coffee Archival on the Pink Paislee panel.  To embellish I added some Zva Creative Crystal Flourishes, Roses and a Vintage Walnut Stain Seam Binding Ribbon Bow.
Details:
Stamps - Our Daily Bread Designs Sharing in your Sorrow
Ink - Ranger Coffee Archival
Card Stock - Blush, Espresso
Other - Zva Creative Crystal Flourish/Roses, Vintage Walnut Stain Seam Binding, Glue Dots
