This sympathy card is for a dear friend who just lost her best friend to leukemia. Tena was a friend to me also... she was a teammate on our Relay for Life team. Always the life of the party! Her positive spirit was contagious; her smile was pure sunshine. She will be missed greatly by all who were touched by her.
I used the Sweet Matstack (JoAnns) for this card. The stamp is from Just Believe by Stampin' UP! With sympathy sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes (also SU). I used black embossing powder for both the image and sentiment.

I designed this card and coordinating gift card holder for a a friend who helped me out with some major computer issues. I love this paper for more masculine cards. I used Basic Grey designer paper and some sponging around the edges. "Thanks" was cut from a cuttlebug design. The strip is also cuttlebug embossing.

Finally I am getting around to posting some pictures from our card making activity last weekend. We had a lot of fun putting together everyone's creations! I took photos of everyone's samples so take a look below!
