Thinking of You

Here is a nice and elegant card for a few challenges. The layout is based on the sketch from Mojo Monday. This week's challenge at the Cuttlebug Spot is the create a Sympathy/Thinking of You card. I also incorporated the challenge from Bitten By the Bug 2, which is to use the cup cut from the Joys of the Season cartridge. Finally I also made this for Pile it On. Their challenge is: "get in shape," use more than five cut-out shapes on your card. I made this card at 5"x7" and layered all my pieces on. The top border on both the front and the inside is a Spellbinders die. I used the Polka Dots embossing folder on the black background. The ovals are cut at 5" and 4 3/4" from George and Basic Shapes and the cup is cut at 2 1/2." All the paper I used in this card is from DCWV, their new Black Currant stack.
