Sympathy cards wasn't what I was planning to make on World Card Making Day, but that's what I need and all I had time for.
This one is a stamped acrylic block background with DOX inks. I added a snippet of border cut from patterned kraft paper. The flowers were stamped on watercolour paper with Morning Mist to make them a little softer, and coloured with Inktense pencils. The jar was stamped on vellum, and I used my Xyron X to make it sticky. There are Stickles on the tall white flower.

Oooh, I love the curved block for the background technique....thanks for the inspiration on that! Beautiful sympathy bouquet and I love the border die as a shelf!

Totally gorgeous. I love the way the background turned out. The flowers, the trim & sentiment - all lovely. I'm just sorry you need a sympathy card. I know it will be greatly appreciated.

Your jar of flowers is so pretty, love the colors of the flowers against the blue and green background. Brilliant idea of stamping the jar on vellum then using your Xyron, saves so much fiddling around hiding the adhesive! Such a beautiful sympathy card, Sabrina.

Beautiful card Sabrina. It caught my attention immediately. Love the colors you chose and all the different textures. Nicely done. And, thanks for the nice comments you left on my last two cards. Greatly appreciated. BTW I love your country. Just booked another trip there for 2019.
