Unfailing Love

Hello!
I am putting some more cards together for my local store and sympathy cards are always needed, so here I am again making more of these!! For this one I decided to focus on this beautiful sentiment that arrived a few weeks back in a package from My Sentiments Exactly. They had a promo on - 100 sentiments for $30 +- dollars. I have to say a fabulous selection arrived and I'm just starting to dig my way through them and explore properly what's in there!
I pulled out some blue paper tones for this with a complementing pale beige colour. A swirl, paper piercing, ribbon, photo corners and pearls complete the card. The argyle cb embossing folder was used for the back panel.
Here's a view of the inside of the card - simple in design - no 'fluff' for this card!!
Thanks again for your visit today - your comments are always much appreciated and enjoyed! Hope you're enjoying a great Monday!
Hugs,

The Next Level Sketch (Wk 5) - A Sympathy Card

Hi there!
I was asked to make a sympathy card so I used the fabulous sketch from The Next Level this week. I have been wanting to participate in The Next Level challenges since it started and this has been my first chance to get round to doing one. I have to say it's never an enjoyable card to make when it's a sympathy one. So I kept the image very simple - there was an additional request for the card to have a 'fly' (or as close to one as I could get) so I stamped this one which I think is a bee, but oh well, it seems to work!
I kept the inside pretty simple and just stamped this sentiment which complements the one on the front of the card. The sympathy set is from Gina K Designs 'Comfort & Peace'.
Well, it's a rainy day here in Ottawa so we're taking it easy today and I'm enjoying watching the Andy Murray v Andy Roddick semi-final at Wimbledon!

I hope you're all enjoying whatever you're doing today! Thanks for coming by today and leaving a much appreciated comment!
Hugs,
