Thinking of You...CR84FN65 Week 2

Hi there! Hope all is well! I'm here to share a card I made for week #2 of the CR84FN65 Color Challenge. Thanks to all who have joined along so far - so many pretty projects in the gallery.
I made this card for a sweet friend of mine who recently lost a near and dear loved one.
I stamped and colored a pretty flower image from MFT Inspired by Flowers Set #2 on a die cut circle that was made using a Die-namics Circle STAX Set 2 die. The pretty die cut doily peeking out from behind was made using a Die-namics Dainty Doily DUO die.
To complete the inside of the card I stamped a sentiment from MFT Inspired By Flowers Set #1 on a die cut layered label that was made using Die-namics Layered Label Die.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Please be sure to visit the DT for wonderful inspiration (listed on my side bar) and the CR84FN site for COMPLETE details. 
Be Sweet :)

    This is beautiful Mona, I love the floral image, and the embossed background, it makes a pretty but subtle detail.
