I made this card as part of Verve's 2nd Anniversary celebration. Verve Diva, Charmaine, challenged all to make a sweet and simple one layer card. Embellishments were allowed, just no additional paper layers. I tried embossing with my Nesties for the first time. The result was okay for a first try, but I definitely need to experiment some more (no tan mat yet!)
This card also meets the qualifications for today's CAS challenge, Show Off Your Bling. Although, I'm not sure "bling" really belongs on a sympathy type card. Pearls seem a bit more subdued than rhinestones, so maybe it's okay?
Thanks for looking!

Oh, it's beautiful! I love the image and that gorgeous ribbon/bow. I think the pearls are perfect for this sympathy card.
