Sympathy Card.



These are the cards that no-one likes to have to give out as it means they have lost a loved one, but, unfortunately there is always someone who needs one of these. I haven't made this one for anyone specifically, it's here "just in case".

I've used the CPS sketch #79 for the design (see below), and it also qualifies for the August Inkurable Stampers challenge - this month's challenge was to use one flower stamp and one or more other stamps.



The flower and the frame stamp are from the Inque Boutique - Boho Frames set, the greeting is a Stampin' Up one. I've used papers by Basic Grey from the Blush range. I've added some Kaiser pearls - not sure it shows up well, but I dotted the 'i's with pearls too, a ribbon bow and a holographic glitter butterfly.

Now this looks stunning Lyn. I might have to pinch that idea.
It looks gorgeous - like you said these sorts of cards are always hard but you have done an awesome job.

Luv Sandie
