SYMPATHY

This is another card from my files. I chose a Lavender card stock for the base and then cut an off white piece of cardstock which was slightly smaller than the 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 front and ran it through the Cuttlebug with a CB folder. Before adhering the off white layer to the front of the card, I ran a piece of Dotted Swiss ribbon around the lower portion of the card and added a clip.

I stamped the image and cut it with a Nestabilities Classic Scalloped Circle, mounted it on a slightly larger Lavender Plain Classic Circle and then again on a slightly larger Green Classic Scalloped Circle. This piece was then adhered to the front of the card.

When I finished it I thought the soft colors and stamped flowers would make an appropriate card to send In Sympathy, although I think a sentiment inside for "Get Well" or even a "Birthday" card would work as well.

Thanks for stopping by!
