I prefer to make sympathy cards before I need them so I decided to add a couple to my stash. You can check out the other one I made here. I started with the lacy die cut heart which arrived in one of my exchange cards this year!! I found this handmade watercolour background which coordinated very nicely so I cut it to size and chose a light green cardstock to go with these two elements. I attached my die cut to the background paper using two white brads in the center of the large flowers on the die cut. I added a slim ribbon adhering the ends to the back of it using double sided tape. I adhered this large element to the front of my green card. I thought that the die cut still needed a bit of something so I added green rhinestones to the small flowers and that helped. I added some hand embossed lines to the large flowers and that was better. I tied a short length of ribbon to the one on the front to simulate a bow and added my layered greeting (SU) over it near the bottom.
Very happy with my card!!
