Here's my card:
I daubed around the edges of the circle with Crumb Cake, to soften the look.
I was happy the way it turned out. For me a sympathy card is a difficult one to make, as you are wanting to convey a serious tone, but yet a celebration of that person's life. Not the easiest for me.
Items used:
Stamps: Love and Sympathy
Paper: Soft Suede cardstock, Brights Designers Series Paper, Very Vanilla cardstcok
Accessories: Old Olive ink, Coastal Cabana ink, Pearls, Circle Framelits, Very Vanilla Seam Binding Ribbon, Modern Mosaic Embossing Folder

ReplyDeleteI like how you used the embossing folder vertically on your panel and the sponging on the stamped panel looks great! Thanks for playing Create with Connie and Mary this week!
