I worked with Winter Bundle 2 for my card. I fussy cut most of the large main image and all of the single candles which I resized so I could tuck them around the single candle.  This is a Christmas bundle, but with the colors and stencil I used, I thought it had to be a sympathy card, therefore the sentiment.

Supplies:
Morgan's Artworld Winter Bundle 2
My Favorite Things Ray of Light Stencil

Oxide Distress ink: fossilized amber
Copic markers
Vagabond die cut machine

The Challenge for this month at Die Cut Divas is Flowers

I'm so happy I chose this Altenew Build A Garden stamp and die set as I can color it's perfect to color with my Copic markers.  I love the 3D embossing folder which gives so much depth.  I know you don't see me using flowers very much, but I do so love this flower set that I made another card.

Card #2 made with the large flower in this Build A Garden set

The first card is an A2 card. The card below is a much larger card, but I've already given it away and can't measure it.  

Supplies for both Cards:

Altenew Build A Garden: Pristine Peonies

Altenew Angled Mosaic 3D Embossing Folder
Copic markers

Tim Holtz Idea-ology sentiment (years old)
