I always find it hard to get the old crafting muse fired up after being away, do you? I really needed to sit down yesterday and make a card, and as it was a Condolence card I had to make it was even harder - they are never easy.
I decided to use the new May LO from The Sketch File Blog as a starting point, as the LO lent itself really well to using a lovely quotation on the narrow panel and butterflies for the details to symbolise the memories we never lose
Info:
Papers from an old DCWV 8x8 pad "Far East"
Textured card in Vanilla-White for the card base and the printed panel
Butterflies cut using "Butterfly Trio" (Memory Box)
Tiny clear gems

I hope you like the card and the LO and will feel inspired to join
in and give it a go this month!
Thank you for calling by
Sympathy cards are tough for me. Love the sentiment on yours Kathy and the sketch worked really well. I have those papers - they're a favourite.
