This card came together super quickly thanks for the pretty papers I worked with. The background paper already had the corner frame on it and it was just the right size to include a sentiment from the Heartfelt Sympathy stamp set in. After that, I drew inspiration from the Global Design Project challenge #30 for the design. The Happy Heart embossing folder was sitting on my desk, since this is my latest acquisition and I thought it fit well with the "My Heart is With You" sentiment, so I embossed a scrap of paper from the same paper stack. I figured the embossed hearts were the same size as the punch heart we carry (my hunch was correct) so I added a row of punched hearts, adorned with pearls.
I also drew inspiration from the Just Add Ink #306 - Sympathy.
