MOJO Monday 215

Two deaths within three days equates to an emotionally and physically draining week.  With all this going on, my grandmother turns 81 today and although we are not celebrating due to the deaths, I still wanted to acknowledge her birthday.  Happy 81st Birthday Grandma Charlotte!

Here is the card that I barely squeezed in some time to make:

I am not sure if this is a reflection of my current mood, but this card turned out darker than I originally planned.  I used this week's MOJO215 sketch for this card.  

Here is the sketch from Mojo Monday:
