Butterfly Sympathy Lever Card

Hello crafty friends ...

You know it's been a rough couple of weeks when you use up your entire supply of sympathy cards. I need to make more pronto, because when I need a sympathy card I certainly don't feel like being creative.

I pulled out some older patterned paper from K & Company and this pretty pearlized rose paper seemed perfect to use for a Lever Card.

It's so hard to pick up the shimmer from the paper in photos. I added this pretty metal butterfly embellishment in the centre. I've had them in my stash for years - and since I like butterflies on a sympathy card it was a good time to use one of them.

I like how sturdily these Lever Cards stand for display.

White and cream card stocks were just too harsh for the signing block, so I used this pretty pink polka dot paper instead and will just sign with a thick black pen.

I was going to add this to my stash and then found out I would need to send it off to friends of the family. Enough already.
