Lately I seem to be needing more sympathy cards on hand so I decided to make a CAS sympathy card.
This card took nearly the full 10 minutes because I decided I wanted the butterfly antennae as part of the die cut so I had to cut it out by hand instead of using the die as originally planned.
- I stamped the butterfly image directly over the green frame for a shadow effect. Got that idea from the amazingly talented Deanna. I swear I could CASE everything she makes.
- Stamped the sentiment, rounded the corners and then added a few score lines with my Scor-Pal.
- Popped the butterfly on and finished it off with rhinestones.
- Stamped the inside white panel with a peony and adhered that inside.
Whew, just made it in time at 9 minutes 18 seconds! How fun! Can't wait to see more challenges from Paulina and Ginny.
Blessings,

This card is lovely! I really like the dimension you added on the butterfly, along with the rhinestones! Also, those scored lines really add a lot to the card!

So sorry that you are finding yourself needing sympathy cards. Yours is a perfect CAS rendition. Very serene and lovely. I have to say that I agree with you about casing Deanna. She is so talented. I never saw that trick about the shadow, however, and now I'm filing that one away for the future, too.
oh love the shadow effect!
