Here is my project:






I was going to make this a wedding card, but then a friend of mines mother passed away and I needed a sympathy card quick. Luckily I hadn't put the sentiment on yet, so I used a Gina K. sentiment instead. Here is a list of materials I used-
  1. Stamp: Gina K. Designs Hope Grows, Versafine Onyx ink.
  2. Embossing folder: Acanthus, Cuttlebug Anna Griffith (white background).
  3. Dies: Flower Bramble, Cuttlebug Anna Griffith-Spellbinders Labels Two.

 Unfortunatetly, you never know when you need sympathy cards, but it does make me feel good to know that an elegant and thoughtful card can show how much you care.
