SC194 With Sympathy

Photo Details

Poster: WAXYO

For sketch challenge 194...I can't believe I actually completed this the day the challenge was issued!

I never have sympathy cards on hand when I need them, so I forced myself to make this one today...at least I know I have one in my pile now!

The focal image, from Great Impressions, is stamped twice - first in Basic Gray and then in Soft Sky to create a sort of shadow effect.

Thanks for looking!

This is really beautiful Meg. I love the soft blues with the gray. Gives it such a warm feel. I really like this stamp. The weathered background is perfect. Really great zigzag. It really gives your layers some depth. Great job. TFS
