FMS115 Sympathy

DSCF9514

Happy Friday, peeps!  No one likes to need sympathy cards, but I needed one this week, and the Freshly Made Sketches sketch was perfect for a classic, simple design:

Starting with a Crumb Cake card base, I stamped that beautiful flourish from Everything Eleanor on the front of my card in Craft White.  I found some pretty MME papers, added some lace, ribbon and an organza flower, along with a Papertrey sentiment:

I rounded the bottom right corner just for a little extra interest.  Thanks for visiting today!

I forgot to share these two cuties that I snapped before Thanksgiving:  Cassidy and her step-cousin (is there such a thing?), Jack:

Giggles, pretzels & shrieks!

What a pretty card LeAnne! I just love that black floral paper, I confess I've been hoarding it! The kiddos look like an ornery pair!

That little flower looks perfect sitting on that lovely DP LeAnne! This sympathy card is sure to bring comfort to the receiver!

This is so gorgeous, LeAnne. I love the verse and I think this would make a beautiful journal cover, too. I feel a CASE coming on! Thanks for sharing with us at Freshly Made Sketches!
