This week at
it's Imke's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "With Sympathy". Always nice to have those types of cards in the stash so you don't have to make one when it's needed.
This is what I did.....
For me, when it comes to sympathy cards, I always think less is more. And, it's gotta be easy to mail. I let a piece of patterned paper do the heavy lifting on this one. Added a stamped sentiment from My Favourite Things, a couple of flat embellies and left it at that.
Why not give our challenge a go this week and join us? And, if you'd like more inspiration, be sure to check out what the Girlfriends have made.
