Sympathy Card




Hi everyone, I have decided to add a Sympathy card to my collection.  Theory being I have never had any on hand and I have needed way too many in the past couple of years.  If I have one on hand I shouldn't need it.  Hope it works that way.

I started with one of the wonderful new shaped cards from Blue Edge Crafts and also one of their lovely Rose pre cut paper tole images.   These are lovely and thick and have a nice shine to them   I went around all the edges of the undersides of the image with my embossing tool just to give a bit of shape to the rose.  The sentiment I printed out from my computer.  I found some wonderful grey metallic card and this lovely silver and white patterned paper in my stash.

Well I hope you all have a happy Friday.  I will be back later today with a card for the new Cardmadfairy Digi Days challenge.  Yes, two weeks are up already.

  2. It is a beautiful card even if it is for a sad time. I don't have any on hand either cause I don't really like making them but maybe I should if your theory is right about not needing it if I have it already made!

  11. This is a really lovely Sympathy card Merry. The rose works so perfectly with the shaped card. I too like to have some of these cards on hand as I never feel like making one when I need one.
