Close as a Memory (#114946), one of my favorite Stamp Set is Retiring.
I made this card as a Sympathy Card for a dear friend of mine that passed away.
I loved the color combination (Old Olive and Rich Razzleberry) and to top it off it was an easy card, but elegant card to make.
Unfortunately #115613 ½” Rich Razzleberry Polka-Dot Grosgrain Ribbon is also retiring.
