Floral Symathy Cross-2 3-dCompleted by Darlene Handorff

Occasion
Sympathy / Sympathy

This pattern came with almost everything I needed to make a beautiful card for friend in the hospital during the holidays.

I printed it once on sticky back 4A photo paper. After cutting out the pieces I began layering starting with the base on creamy white card stock.

Then adding the 3D pieces 2 crosses first with foam mounting squares and then the flowers and flourishes using thinner mounting squares in small pieces.I then mounted the wording again using small mounting pieces.

I used glitter sparingly to highlight. I then put double silver chain around the border, the wording, and diagonally. The tiny silver snowflakes were added last. The card just shimmered on the rainbow swirls background the cross pattern came on. Finally on the inside I added a Bible verse and an encouraging get well.

My friend said this card helped him regain his strength and it was admired & appreciated greatly. Now isn't that what it's all about?
