Day 59 - A Certain Sentiment

I have set goals for the year's worth of cards, including making sure we work in a variety of sentiments. Some are obviously easier than others (e.g., Happy Birthday), but it's nice to have some different cards on hand for those unexpected occasions.

Today's sentiment: "I Miss You" or something similar. For me, this sort of sentiment is a challenge, because I want to convey that emotion through the overall appearance of the card.

Let's see how Tammy handled this challenge:

Seriously, Tammy, this is jaw-dropping beautiful, and a perfect example of what I mean by using the overall look of the card to convey the message.

I am anxious to see what you all come up with on this one!
