In Deepest Sympathy
Hello crafters! Another sympathy card to share today. I inked a piece of card with Shaded Lilac, Mermaid Lagoon and Candied Apple to create a pretty sky effect. I cut a wide oval frame out of white card using the Double Stitched Ovals and added it over the inked card, trimming away the excess around the oval. I added it to another piece of white card. I cut the Sympathy die in black and stamped the rest of the sentiment an cut it out with the tag die in the set. I added it below the frame. I used the Cherry Blossom Frame and cut it in black, then nipped away one of the branches and added it to the frame. I cut the robin in black and glued him to the branch. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now. Sue x
