We all have occasion where we need a sympathy card as was the case for me about a week ago. I had spent some time with my stamping BFF Donna and we both had new product to share. I had just gotten the new ombre ink pad from Hero Arts and this one was in the greens (if you have not tried them they are awesome). Using a stencil I sponged the ink with the stencil in place. I think it makes a great background,. I also had a new die - well new to me with this set of flowers and I decided to do my focal image in blacks with just a tiny pearl in the middle of each flower, another die cut with sympathy in black and this card was complete with no stamping. These cards are difficult to send but I hope my friend got a little comfort from it knowing i was thinking about her loss. Challenges:
