Sweet Stamps #12 - Sympathy

This week at Sweet Stamps the challenge is a Sympathy Card.

We would like you to join us in this challenge for a chance to win a $20 shopping spree at 
Sweet Stamps.  You can use any stamp for your card, but if you use a Sweet Stamps

I stamped the Small Iris on White Cryogen with Tuxedo Black Momento Ink.  The lovely Iris are colored with Copics. I placed the colored Iris on  Nellie's Oval Multi Frame.  The flourish is part of  Marianne's Circle Frame Elements Dies. The sentiment is embossed with black embossing powder.  I distressed the edges with Shades Argos Ink.  The DP is Basic Gray's Cappella. The lace and pearls are from Kaiser Kraft.  The finished size is 4.25" x 5.50".
