Time Out: With Deepest Sympathy


We're back with another challenge at Time Out!  THEME Sympathy with the optional twist of distressing (using Distress Inks, distress edges, paper tearing etc).  I went along with the optional twist and used distress inks to ink up a sheet of paper and sprinkled some water on it before die cutting them with these fabulous Lawn Fawn leaf die cuts.  I have had these for about three years and love pulling them out each fall.  Used a little twine to finish this off. 

I hope that you can come play along with us. We're sponsored by Happy Little Stampers.  And the winner (who optionally twist) is eligible for a $15 gift certificate to their store.  Sue is also our guest designer and you will love her gorgeous designs.  Be sure to pop on over to her blog too!

Love love love this! Your leaves look fantastic,I love the distressed look you created for them! I'm definitely going to try this with some flower dies I have -I haven't known how to use them, they are a bit "cutesy", but this style might work perfectly! Thanks Lynn!

This is truly a fabulous card, and perfect for sympathy. Simple and beautiful. Love the distressed leaves. The rounded corner adds softness, and the twine is the perfect finish. I just love it.
