My card for Caardvarks` Sketchfest`s Monday sketch:
I hope that I`ll never need one, but I thought this would be a proper sympathy card. The sketch reminded me of this, I don`t know why, maybe because of the edge in the right corner? I never created a sympathy card before, it`s really difficult!
The stamp on the background and the pearls are Hero Arts, the boarder stamp is Fontwerks by Karen Russell, the other stamps are Stampers Anonymous by Tim Holtz.
Have a happy Monday everybody!
Hugs,
Vanessa
