With Sympathy

Hello All!

Today's card is my inspiration sample for the 

Dies R Us Inspiration Blog.

I get many requests for sympathy cards, so when I saw this 

Sue Wilson 'Expressions - With Sympathy'

die (CED5416) in the store, I just knew I had to have it.

The other dies used on today's card are:

Memory Box 'Catalina Wreath'

Sue Wilson 'Scandinavian Background'

Memory Box 'Open Studio - Stitched Circle Layers'

When choosing color/pattern for my wreath die,

I spotted a scrap of paper I had created with I was playing

with my Ken Oliver color bursts over the holidays 

(hence the variation in color).

It was the right size so that became the basis

for my entire creation.

The white sentiment has been popped up, which

looks fabulous IRL ... but since it blended in

a bit more than I wanted, I simply did some dots

along the phrase with a Spectrum Noir IB2 marker.

Don't forget to come join in the fun

challenges offered at the Dies R Us Challenge Blog.

The current challenge theme is:  Use the color STITCHING (real or faux).

Thanks for stopping by!

As always . . .
