Sympathy

 Happy Tuesday Friends!

Today I've created a card for the new challenge over on the CAS Mix Up Challenge Blog where crafting friend Leslie (Running with Scissors) is a new DT member.  Congrats to her and what fun I had creating this card.  

 

Actually, truth be told, I created THREE cards but liked this one the best!  LOL

My stamping is on the inside of my card,
the splatters were created using Tim Holtz Distress 'Antique Bronze' spray stain
and Distress Oxide 'Mermaid Lagoon' Spray,
and my Mixed Media element is faux stitching.

I have used a very old Spellbinder (Valiant Honor) for my decorative panels.
My front cover sentiment is by Sue Wilson (CED5416) and the inside stamped sentiment is a very old stamp set from Stamp Simply.

  5. Such a wonderful monochromatic CAS creation, Darlene! Thank you for sharing your sympathy card with us at Jan's Digi Blog Challenge. For me it is a difficult card to make. I need to make a few to have on hand incase I need one. Stay safe and Happy crafting!
