MTTC #524 Sympathy theme card for DT commitment on 29 December 2023

Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!

Purpose: I'm keeping happy thoughts for you that 2023 is ending calmly and quietly. My Time To Craft challenge blog's new theme is sympathy. Death comes at any time and a DT member suggested we end 2023 and start 2024 remembering others, showing empathy with our cardmaking. 

When: #524 starts December 29, 2023 and ends on January 11, 2024

What: the dove brings peace and comfort to the family card


Notes:

1. green cardstock base = Neenah

2. light gray paper scrap was edged with black diamond-cut glitter tape (stash items)

3. white cardstock scrap panel (Neenah) was inked-edged with Pea Green alcohol marker from Arteza

4. stencils are from 2 different sheets; both were bought at Dollar Tree; more of the Pea Green alcohol marker was used

5. the silver glittered dove 'ornament' focal = 1 of a boxed set bought at Dollar Tree
