Cards - Sympathy - Silk Flowers

I made a couple sympathy cards this morning for folks who have lost loved ones recently.  The top one is for a lady who lost her husband.
I started with a mint green card and added some K&Company Designer paper in muted tones of green, grey and teal.  I added a ribbon across the bottom and mounted the sentiment on top of it with 3D foam tape.  I added an accent of layered silk flowers and leaves in similar colors. All held in place with a tiny white brad with a gold flower sequin as the outer most layer.

The next one is for a friend who lost her sister at 95. What a long life!  On this card I played on the bits of bright pink in the bottom left hand corner hence the bit of pink in the silk flowers.  The sentiment was color printed and punched with the Stampin Up Decorative Label punch.  Again mounted over a ribbon with 3D foam tape.
