Hmmmm...

this is a little odd for me...I don't normally as a rule create Sympathy cards unless a situation arrises that would require one...I just don't feel right necessarily having a stockpile of sympathy cards just hanging about...But I just so happened to have this beautiful Verve stamp set that is a Sympathy stamp set (Forever in our Hearts)...
The main purpose of this post is actually for this weeks Fresh Batch challenge over with Stamps and Smiles. Great sketch to play with...a little different for me...but then again so is the type of card! I'm wayyyyy outside of my box today!

Supplies: Cardstock: DCWV, Bazzil; Stamp: Verve; Ink: Distress Ink - Walnut Stain; Embossing Powder: Distress Embossing Powder - Walnut Stain; Stickles: Distress Stickles - Peeled Paint; Ribbon and Brads unknown
