Sympathy card.... and shadow stamping

Hello there fellow stampers!

Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend and is ready to tackle another Monday! To start off this week I wanted to share with you this sympathy card I created with Serene Silhouettes. I have used this set so many times and it just never gets old. I stamped the image in early espresso on a 2 3/8 by 4 5/8 white piece of cardstock. I then used stapamaig to stamp it off a little bit to the side with versamark and embossed it in white. The image will not pop up until you start sponging and all the sponging is done in Sahara Sand just because that's what I had on hand and it worked. I placed the image on an Espresso cardstock 2 1/4 by 4 3/4.

Now, lets get to the rest of the card. The card base is in Early Espresso, White is  4 1/8 by 5 3/8 and the Crumbcake is 4 by 5 1/4. Don't you just love the brick embossing  folder??? It's totally fabulous and I love it. I sponged it just enough for the brinks to pop out. The greeting is from a hostess set Bloom with Hope. So there, now you know it all so enjoy it!
