Well, I find myself needing yet another sympathy card **sigh**. This is for a dear friend who lost her husband very unexpectedly. She was out of the country on business and he was way too young.
I stamped the image on ivory w/ the gray ink and added just a hint of color w/ the neutral colors of markers. Punched the bottom edge and used the marker to edge the panel. The gray panel was bugged w/ the script folder and the dune bg was bugged w/ the swiss dots folder. Both were edged w/ markers.
The frame was stamped and the sentiment was arranged to fit inside, then it was cut out. I attached it on top of the ribbon and put the brads thru all layers. I attached three pieces of the ribbon (IRL it's a very pretty satin edge moire) and attached brads on top. Then I put it all together on an ivory card. I hope this is the last one I need for a very long time. TFL

Oh, Julie, I am so sorry to hear you're in need of yet another sympathy card! What a tragedy for your friend to be out of the country and not be there! She will surely appreciate your token of concern. It's just a perfectly crafted card and so appropriate for this occasion!
