This is a sympathy card for my close girlfriend who just lost her 91 yo father-in-law. How wonderful to live a rich and full life raising 5 children, enjoying many grandchildren and being married for 69 1/2 years :-) We are thinking of you Anna and your family.
I used 3 layers of Versamark ink and glassy glaze EB powder heated over the main image. Then placed image in freezer for 10 minutes. Removed and bent image until I got the cracked glass result that I liked. I like the vintage look for an elderly gentleman.

Beautiful card, love the colors and the layout. I will have to check out the cracked glass technique as I have never tried it, TFS

This is absolutely perfect cracked glass, Nancy, and it couldn't be a more appropriate sympathy card. It's beautifully made and I love everything about it. Hey--I had so much fun yesterday!!
Beautiful sympathy card, Nancy! I love the subtle striped DP strip with the cracked glass piece! The flowers in sage, with the sentiment overlay is wonderful!
