Masculine Sympathy

I recently had a request for a masculine sympathy card. It was interesting to me because I had just ordered the "Thanks for Caring" set after being inspired by a masculine sympathy card. This image is very striking in all dark ink, but I wanted to try something a little bit different. The detail and symmetry seemed to work well with coloring in bits and pieces with markers. For the Crumb Cake layer, I used the Sanded back ground stamp to add a soft yet detailed feature to this simple card. The Twill Tape works nicely, but I'm really wishing that my Night of Navy Satin Ribbon was here already. It makes me really look forward to the ribbon share! Perhaps I'll change up this card as soon as it arrives. Remember to join in the ribbon share, you need to contact me by this Thursday.
