Sympathy Cards





Each week over a Scrappy Dew on Facebook, Michelle is kind enough make the Mojo Monday sketch into a cut file.  Click on her name if you want the download to use for yourself.   I haven't downloaded them for a little while so I decided to pop on over and download them.   Well after downloading the file, I popped over to Mojo Monday to see what people were creating with this weeks sketch.  As I was looking through the challenge entries, I fell in love with a card by Cullen-aryCreations and decided to try to "copy" her design.  Since I didn't have her exact cuts/dies etc, mine is of course different (and to be honest, I still like her's better but....) I still like how mine turned out.  I have such a hard time creating sympathy cards that I decided to do 4 of these in hopes that I won't need them anytime soon but they are always nice to have on hand when you need one.  My favorite  one is the one with the real button.  I should have done that one first.  I almost never use twine because it takes a few minutes to work with it, but I always love how it turns out.  I should just force myself to do it more often.  LOL.  Do you have a product that you love the look of but not so much the getting it there?  Anyway, thanks for the inspiration Wanda!

So of course I had to enter it into their challenge....right?
