June Club Project, Reverse Masking
I enjoyed the Reverse Masking technique SO much, that I had to try it again!! Just love the way this card turned out. I found the idea online and went with it! Serene Silhouettes is going to be one of those "go to" stamp sets. It's SO peaceful and just simply beautiful!!

Isn't this just the simpliest, but most effective card. I figure if I made LOTS of sympathy cards ahead, I won't need them. Don't you find that when you don't have the perfect card, then you will sure need one.
