Spotlight a sorry to see you leave us card

I work for an international organization of 180 employees and 64 different nationalities. We have all come together because we believe in and want to grow the mission of our organization. Having so many employees leave their families to work abroad for a few years means that there are times during the year when these wonderful friend decide to return home and see their next opportunities. 

This month we are saying a sad farewell to someone on our team. I have really enjoyed working with and learning from this person. I created the card below for our team to sign at her farewell party. The best part of making a card like this is that I can design the layout and choose colors that match our team member!

To make my Sorry for Everything card I chose the following products:

Sorry For Everything Clear-Mount Stamp Set
$20.00

Garden Trellis Textured Impressions Embossing Folder
$7.50

Pick A Pattern Washi Tape
$8.00

 

I think what makes this card a stand out is the color choice: Mango Melody!

Here's my card - read on for a few extra tips under the photo:

 

Tips:

1. Instead of using washi tape, use a plain strip of Basic Black card stock
2. Instead of using the embossing folder, stamp images all over the Mango Melody layer, using Mango Melody ink
3. Try a different embossing folder for a different background effect. 
4. Make a second card and change the layout from landscape to be portrait.
