CASE(E) This Sketch #41 (2)


I decided to play with this sketch from CAS(E) this Sketch again as I had a design on my mind.  It's been quite a week for 4 of my friends, none of them are related, but each was struck by the loss of a member of their family.

This card is for a new friend here in South Africa who lost his brother unexpectedly yesterday.


Paper: cardstock (PTI)
Ink: CTMH (Juniper dye ink); Versafine; Versamark; Copic markers
Stamps: Hero Arts; Purple Onion Designs
Other: Clear embossing powder

The little birdie from POD is popped up with dimensional foam adhesive and coloured in with Copics.

There just are no words at a time like this, only prayers will suffice.

Wishing you a good day.
