With Sympathy

I need a sympathy card in my stash (I hope it collects dust!) just in case, so I made a pretty quick one.



I had to clamp it closed to take the picture, because of the pop dots on the inside, lol. The card is 10x5.25 inches open, and is 5x5.25 inches closed.

The green card stock is cut at: 9.75x5 inches.

The two stripe panels are cut at: 2.00x4.34 inches.

I pasted a striped panel to the back of the card (not pictured), and it is cut at: 4.75x4.75.

I took a piece of black paper and took Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in Pearl, sprayed it down, and dried it with my embossing gun. Then, I took my Martha Stewart punch punched that out.

The punched/glimmered piece is cut at: 4.25x4.00 inches.

Then, I took a plain piece of black paper (now that I think about it, I don't know why?! LOL) and cut it at: 4.00x3.75 inches.

The floral piece of paper is cut at: 3.5x3.75.

The pink/diagonal piece of paper is cut at 1.00 inches wide and I cut it at the corners of the panel.

I found a pack of these flowers by K&Company that matches the size of the flowers of the paper PERFECTLY at Archivers (my FAVORITE scrapbooking store!), so I adhered it to every flower that was whole and not covered up by the wording.

With sympathy is from Cursive 101 and was welded together at a height of .65 inches. And as always, I used Jolee's Jewels for the dot on the i in with!



Inside:

I'm not the best at decorating the insides of cards, so I just covered up the black area with paper.

The smaller panels are cut at: 2.25x4.75 inches.

The larger panel is cut at: 5.00x4.75 inches. I had EXACTLY 12 flowers left, and I like symmetry, so I stuck them on the corners.

I couldn't take how the back of the mini panel was bare, so I stuck some paper on that! lol
It is cut at: 3.5x1.75.

Have a great day!
