So enough hop talk. Let’s see the card.
Ooh la la!
Made this one with the new With Sympathy die. Not exactly a fun occasion to make cards for, but an important reason to make cards for. Having lost both of my parents in the
I created the background by brushing watercolors on watercolor paper and then splattering on some water drops and blowing them dry with my heat gun.
To add to the watery feel of the card (is there such a thing?), I dripped on a few drops of Glossy Accents around and near the flourishes.
Alright! Hope you enjoy the hop.
Thanks for stopping by today, friends!
The blue background makes the card look soothing and calm.
What a lovely sympathy card!
Very cool looking BG; gorgeous card.

Yes, not a favorite card type to have to make, but I do like the bold word and the beautiful background you created to make this perfect card.
The white sentiment is so pretty against that gorgeous watercolor background. It creates a serene look and will bring comfort.
I added the PS logo and a link to the hop in the sidebar of my blog.
