The moment I saw this EF, I've been hankering to stamp this creeping ivy on it... i love those really old houses with ivy & creepers running riot!
As I'm trying to stock up on sympathy cards, this seemed a good match.
After stamping the ivy using 2 shades of green, colored over with YG03 copic for extra brightness. Stamp the greeting. Emboss with the brick EF, run E00 or E30 copic around edges & a bit here and there on the brickwork to 'age'.
Mount panel on Kraft cardstock, the mount again on ivory card front. Add a few butterflies (glossy accents applied). Some leaves have been mounted with 3d foam dots for visual interest.

Oh my word...this is so beautiful! Your vines and the dimension are stunning! I love how you have the "just right" touch of color and balance. Your work is incredible! TFS
