Another sympathy card

I made another sympathy card this evening.  I am not sure what one I am going to give away.  I went with two completely different looks and not I can't decide.  I'll sleep on it and take another look at them in the morning. =) For this card I used a digital set from Clear Dollar Stamps called Endless Beginnings. This beautiful set comes with 11 different sentiments and this beautiful dove.  The dove comes colored or in outline form.
I used these challenges to make this card:
Crafty Sentiments - White on White except for image
CCEE - Sympathy
Daring Cardmakers - Embossing
Shopping our Stash - Oldest Ribbon (not sure if this is my oldest ribbon but I have had it for a long time, this was the last of it.)
Thanks for stopping by and if you would like give me your opinion on what card to give.

I absolutely LOVE this card--I love Deedee's digis (LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them!!!!) and you did a great job with it! I love that background frilly paper stuff. :) The pearls are gorgeous, too. I vote for this one to give away, even though the other one is beautiful, too.

This is just stunning! The white on white is just beautiful and so is the embossed BG. Thanks for joining us at SSW.

Oh boy..glad it's not me having to choose..these are stunning! The one with the dove and beautiful sentiment makes me teary. The one for your friend ( my sympathies btw) I think is perfect. Before I even read your post, the card reminded me of old times..so you got it right, if you ask me.

Sarah, they are both beautiful! This one is my favorite. It's exceptional with all the die cutting and white on white. I really like this verse, too. If it was me, I think I would give the colorful one to a younger person and this one to an older adult.
