Lollipop Crafts Challenge #5

Time for another Lollipop Crafts Challenge!! Before I get to today's challenge though I have some news~
Lollipop Crafts DT Badge
I am now a full time design team member vs. a guest designer!! Yay! I look forward to designing for this fun challenge!

Onto the challenge for today~ Create a sympathy card. Hope you'll visit the Lollipop Crafts Challenge blog to see what the other team members have created and also to see how you can play along. 


I must admit this is not a favorite type of card for me to make but it is one we unfortunately must make from time to time. I kept mine very CAS (clean and simple).

supplies:
  • card size: 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
  • stamps: PMS Faith, Hope, Love, and TAC With Sympathy for the sentiment
  • paper: SU  cardstock,
  • ink: SU Blush Blossom, SU Dusty Durango, SU Basic Brown
  • others:
We are also sponsored this week by Fairy Knoll. The winner will receive 3 digis of their choice. The design team were provided with images to use, I didn't feel they were quite right for a sympathy card so here's a separate card using Magic.
