PSC44 - a CAS Sympathy Card

Welcome to the Perfect Sentiments Challenge PSC44 where I'm guest designing for the month of August. The challenge this week is to create a CAS (clean and simple) sympathy card with the sentiment on the front. I used the SU! Love and Sympathy set for this, embossing both the image and sentiment with gold embossing powder. I also embossed a scrap piece of card stock with gold, and used a hole punch to make 3 embellishments to balance everything. I used a corner rounder on both the image panel and card base, and that's all there was to making this CAS card.
We'd love to have you play along with our challenges, and keep in mind that the sentiment has to be on the front of your card.
Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

    The embossing really makes your card snap! Very appropriate for our challenge.

    What a beautiful card! Love the look of the embossing, but the dimension and rounded corners help it stand out.
