Seems ages since I made a card, and my husband requested a sympathy card for a co-worker who has suffered a loss. I like this elegant black and white paper, but the pattern might be considered a little too bold for a card like this.....so, my favorite way to soften a busy pattern or boldly-colored print is to add a vellum layer. Creating a frame provides a good place to hide the adhesive when adding the vellum panel to the card. I especially love to use PTI's A2 Noted die collection to create frames....isn't the scalloped stitching a great partner to the delicate edge of the card base? The layered flowers are Tilth Floral by Memory Box and a stitched flower from MFT's collection by the same name. The inside includes a sympathy sentiment.
Thanks so much for visiting,
Christine
