I needed a couple more sympathy cards, so I made this as an extra card for Lisa's WTUI challenge which you will find HERE.
Image stamped and embossed, then sponged, and spritzed to add a little distressing. I cut it with a Spellbinders square, which I then dry-embossed as a frame in the card and trimmed the panel down so that the embossed frame showed more. Added the sentiment, and mailed it out.

I need to get a few sympathy cards made. This is beautifully done. Great colors to the skyline and a perfect image too. Thank you for creating another card for the Distress It challenge.
