Blackberry Beauty Sympathy Card
For my November tutorial I created a slimline card using a template from Jessica Taylor's One Sheet Wonder Club (if you are a member of my team you get to join her club free of charge!). Unfortunately I needed a sympathy card so I made this one. Of course you can change the sentiment to anything that you need.
I forgot to take a photo of the inside but it included a sympathy sentiment with stamped leaves.
Here are all the details:

- Attach the sentiment rectangle to the piece of gold foil and glue to the card front.
- Take the gold flower from the ephemera pack (or your own leaf die made from gold foil) and carefully glue down to the card front.

It's sad when you need a sympathy card but it's nice to have some made in advance so you can just grab one that's appropriate to send.
