This is a very simple CAS card I did for a lady at work. Her sister died unexpectedly at the age of 38. I used Papertrey's Leaf Prints set and dies to stamp and cut the leaves. I stamped with several colors of Memento ink on each leaf. I popped one of them up with a pop dot. I know I should have stamped on Rustic Cream cardstock, but I was playing around and used white instead. Shame on me. Anyway, I drew the frame with a ruler and Zig pen. The sentiment is from PTI's With Sympathy set. Thanks for looking!

I really like the diecut leaves on the white paper - to me it looks intentional and very artistic. Love this card!

I think the cardstock you used is perfect because it has little flecks of color in it that makes it complement the leaves. My sympathies to your coworker on the loss of her sister. How tragic to have someone so young pass on.

Simply wonderful. How sad about your co-worker's sister. She's only 2 years older than I am. You just cannot take life for granted! Love your card.....TFS
