Sympathy Card ~ For You

Sympathy cards are always the hardest for me to make.
 I think because it reminds me of those I've lost, how I felt 
at the time and how the recipient must be feeling now.
I fell in love with this embossing folder when I saw it.
I love how it adds a little soothing elegance to the card.
To finish my card I simply stamped the flower, 
colored it up and added a few rhinestones.




*Card base 4.25 x 5.5 in.
*Flower from the Mon Ami stamp set from CAS-ual Fridays.
*Embossed sentiment using the With Sympathy folder from Darice.
*Rhinestones from Triveni Crafts.
*B32 marker from Copic
*Memento London Fog stamp pad from Tsukineko.

May your day always be filled with love and laughter.

  5. I know what you mean about sympathy cards and I find them extremely hard to make. I think this one is so perfect. Your right about the embossing being so subtle and stylish and the hint of blue is just enough. Its a lovely card and I'm so glad you came over to join in the CAS-ual Fridays CAS challenge.
