Korin thanks for the wonderful sketch today. It worked wonderfully for my sympathy card. My cousin who lost her cat a week or so ago has now lost her brother, my cousin. So sad. I hope my cards make her feel loved and thought of.......details...
Browsing YouTube I saw this video where they laid down some wet water colors and then sprinkled sea salt over top and let them dry. SO me being me just had to give it a try. That's my panel #2.
Panel #1 is cs ran through the cb using a dreamweaver stencil then sponging on tea dye and stonewashed ink.
Panel #3 is a stamped image colored with copics. Panel #2 is the sentiment done on the computer.
Put everything together on a cream colored card. This will be in the mail tomorrow.
Well, that's it for today.....TFL :0)
Hi Sis! Hi NC Sis!

I am so sorry to hear that you lost your cousin. My thoughts and prayers and with you. Your sweet card with one of my favorite Suzy's Zoo characters will I am sure brighten her day. Love the sea salt technique I am going to have to give it a try!

I sure don't like to say a sympathy card is cute, but this one is. I'm sorry about losing your cousin, but his sister I'm sure will get comfort from this card and feel your love.
