I always need Sympathy cards for my stash - so that's what I made today.
The card base is Soft Stone - a very light grey. I stamped the text stamp from Waltzingmouse several times on a white panel with Ranger Distressed Iced Spruce that also looks grey. I adhered a thin strip of brushed silver card stock to the top of the text panel than layered it onto the card.
I stamped the Sympathy from SU on a piece of vellum and adhered it over the text panel just along the top edge using some Vellum Glue Dots I have. Then I just added 3 silver pearls around the sentiment.
I love how this came out!
My town had it's Memorial Day parade this morning despite the constant drizzle - I was glad to see that quite a lot of people came out despite the bad weather - there was a moving ceremony in the section of the town cemetery where soldiers are buried - complete with taps, a 3 gun salute and a bagpipe rendition of Amazing Grace!
