The challenge was Great Outdoors. I always find it hard to do a Sympathy card because I tend to add a lot of stuff I don't need and really shouldn't be there. This one is about as simple as it gets. I cut two ovals from cereal box cardboard one slightly larger than the other. Finding the centre of my card I embossed the ovals on my light box starting with the smallest one first. Then clear embossed the leaf and sponged Mellow moss and Always artichoke. I like the look.

Way to go on thinking up a clever way to embossing those nested ovals! This card is stunning in its simplicity. The embossed leaf is perfect for a sympathy card. What an awesome one-layer card.
