Sympathy (again!)

This one uses Close-to-My-Heart paper, embossing powder, Cocoa ink. The stamps and dry embossing folder are all "contraband" (Verve stamps, Cuttlebug folder) and the ribbon is May Arts.  Problem with it is that the acetate I used is too thin and the card is too wobbly.  I love the look, just not the execution, so I'm keeping the photo for a day when I might feel like making it with the proper materials.

Gosh, I'm sorry you are in need of so many sympathy cards, but you are making some really pretty ones. This is lovely. I really like what you have added to the acetate. It's so pretty. Too bad it didn't work out quite like you had hoped. The sentiment is comforting as well as the colors. Thank you for sharing and best of luck on any new version you make. Although, I must say, this looks perfectly fine to me. Maybe run a bone folder over the top and bottom folds to help it lay flatter and it looks to be good to go. Have a great day! Hugs!
