The Life

For Sympathy cards, I gravitate towards softer colors than I normally use . . .

One of the easiest and quickest ways to achieve that is with Distress Stains.  Here, I white-embossed an overall floral pattern and then daubed on three colors in loose rows.  I misted with water a couple of times to keep it soft, and finished with a mist of Perfect Pearls overall.
