Today is Day 143 at 365 Cards. The theme is Sympathy, but there is a catch! This 'Keep it to Yourself' challenge is to create a Sympathy card without putting the sentiment on the front. Whew...sounds like a CAS card to me, and you all know how I get along with CAS!!!
I found a scrap piece of printed vellum that worked perfectly on a light gray card. The stamp is Inkadinkado, inked with Charcoal ColorBox Chalk Ink. Add a ribbon - voila! A five minute card!
