I needed a sympathy card for our friends, whose
dad passed away. I just wanted something simple
and 'soft' that would let them know we were thinking
of them. I wanted to use the flowers from the 'Upsy Daisy'
set and had seen a really neat tutorial doing shadow
stamping so I thought I would give it a try.

Lots of layers with distressed edges and a few little
butterflies to finish it off. I was very tempted to 'bling'
it up with sparkles and some little diamonds and pearls,
but it didn't seem to suit the occasion. (I'm interested
in your thoughts - is it appropriate to send a heavily
embellished sympathy card, or is that in bad taste?)
Anyways, I thought the end result was very serene
and I hope our friends will feel the comfort and peace
of our Heavenly Father's love during this tough,
tough time. If you have a moment, I know your
prayers would mean a lot to our friends, who are
missing their husband, Dad and Opa right now.
Thanks so much.

The effect of that shadow stamping is incredible. This is an amazing card. You are uber talented! Amazing. Love the colour combo, and the layout. Another great creation.
