Sympathy Swap

I finally finished this Sympathy card for an Organized swap.  An Organized Swap has RULES and they can be intimidating......maybe that is why I felt such pressure making this card.  I have wanted to redo this card but alas.....out of time.  It is what it is and hopefully will adhere to the RULES!!

After sleeping on it I came up with a slight fix.......I had used Regular Whisper White card stock and the card back was a bit flimsy and my dark sentiment was showing thru the card back.   SO here is my FIX,  ADDed a 5 1/2 X 4 1/4 piece of Sweet Sugar Plum to the back!!!  No more show thru and I trimmed off 1/4 inch of the Whisper White so the Sweet Sugarplum adds a Border when you open the card.  MUCH BETTER!!!   The appearance of the front of the card did not change.

Inside a nice little border and the sentiment no longer shows thru the Whisper White since the card is now backed with Sweet Sugarplum.

Rose Wonder for the Sentiment which I love this font!!
