Unfortunately in the last week I have needed to make a couple of sympathy cards, this is one of them.
The sketch is very basic and everyone uses it but I felt it suited this card. There isn't any ribbon on it a) because I didn't have any and b) because I felt for a male sympathy it wasn't needed.
The colours are Midnight Muse and Whisper White. I fussy cut the Apothecary Art stamp so the space between the Midnight Muse Label framelit and the stamped image wasn't huge. I think it looks nicer that way.
I've been away at a craft retreat in Brisbane. It was the best camp. We had a ball. I'm sorry, I don't have any pictures, no time...between eating, crafting and sleeping, the weekend just flew.
Thanks for visiting my blog and enjoy your day.

Leigh, this new colour is so good for a sympathy card for a male. Very nice - it must have been hard for you not to use some kind of ribbon on a card LOL!!
A beautiful, elegant card Leigh! hgs, Marlies
Beautiful Leigh and the colours are wonderful and love your design!
