I had to make a Sympathy card tonight for a co-worker so everyone at the office can sign it. A folded sheet of Navy Blue cardstock & my trusty Dot Flower Pattern just came to mind when I decided to make this card. The background is stamped 2 and 1/4 times across the card surface and embossed with Psychedelic embossing powder. It's sparkly and you can detect a pattern that sparkles blue and green and is a bit mesmerizing. I went for large die-cuts and a butterfly and flowers. I think it works. Not too sad or too happy. It really does fit the bill. I taped a sheet of white paper inside for sentiments and signatures.
