A Tiime for Sympathy

Although these are cards I never want to make, sympathy cards are a must-have.  At times we all need one, and having just the right card at the right time is so important.

So when I needed a sympathy card last week, I went to Painted Harvest; look at how beautiful this card is:

And deceptively easy, right when I needed a fast card.

The base is Thick Very Vanilla, and the stamped images are on a slightly smaller piece of Very Vanilla using Daffodil Delight and Crushed Curry for the flowers and Pear Pizzazz and Garden Green for the leaves.

Notice that I scored two lines (from the back side of the cardstock) all the way around.  This adds such an elegant, embossed edge, and is so easy, using the Simply Scored Board.

The sentiment, from Weather Together, was stamped with Early Espresso ink on a strip of Very Vanilla.  This has holes punched in either side, and Linen Thread wrapped around the card, through the holes.

Glad I had the "right" card for the moment it was needed.

Thanks so much, Laurie; this was for a colleague who lost her grandma--I wanted it to be special for her.
