Just Add Ink 39 and Creative Sketches Week 2

I have combined these two challenges together Just Add Ink No 39 and Creative Sketches Week 2 colour challenge.

The Just Add Ink Challenge this week is to raise awareness for Anxiety and Depression Month.  The idea is then to send it to someone who needs their spirits lifted,  I will be sending mine to my sister who had breast cancer and had her breast removed two years ago. She has spent all week at different doctors as there is a great fear that her cancer is trying to return, so now they are talking of the removing her ovaries and her other breast as it was a very aggressive cancer that she had. She is a single mum with a 6 year old and a 16 year old so she is very worried at present. (My card is just thanking her for being a wonderful mother to her girls and  a wonderful sister to me).

The other challenge is to create a card with Marina Mist, Soft Suede and Always Artichoke.
Here is my card for this week:

 Here is a peek at the inside.

Card:  Marina Mist, Soft Suede, Very Vanilla and Always Artichoke
Ink: Crumb Cake and Marina Mist
Accessories:  Embossing folder Elegant Bouquet, Butterfly embosslit. Pearls and Marina Mist ribbon
