Thinking of You in Blue and Grey

A very cool colour scheme - possibly inspired by the cool temperatures today!

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
Sweet Sketch Wednesday - Sketch 212

The Outlawz CFC Challenge

Here is the sketch that I followed:


I have used papers from MME and DCWV for this card.  The embossed half ovals are grey cardstock and have been embossed with a folder called "Heavy Duty" by Craft Creations.  The lace is some my mother gave me a while back which I think she has had for many years and not used.  The image is from Sandi Huggett as part of The Outlawz CFC Challenge.  I have added a Thinking of You sentiment from Sans Designs and also some buttons I got in a grab bag.
