IC641 - Aquarium of the Pacific where I found this IMAGE. I love how it was all tone on tone and yet the texture of the fish was still in the image.
I unfortunately needed several sympathy cards this past week and needed to replenish my stash.
Using some embossed paper I kept the cards very monochromatic with just a pop if color. I had a large stack of this embossed paper so I layered it on the same color card stock. Then I embossed several sentiments and added some dimensionals to the sentiment layers. I finished a couple cards with some tiny flowers from my stash and a couple with crosses from my stash.
I would love it if you would check out my Blog: Shoe Girls Cards.
Thank you for looking!

The photo inspiration made me chuckle! I love how you kept your sympathy cards mostly white. The embossing is stunning! What a gorgeous set of cards for your stash!

Sympathy cards are so difficult to make, but doing them in batches is a good idea. These are stunning and this embossed pattern paper is so beautiful...tone on tone is always elegant. The size of your embellishments are perfect. PERFECTION!
