LOVE & SYMPATHY


Wood Mounted $15.95
Clear Mounted $11.95
 
All of us find ourselves in need of a sympathy card from time to time and so many times we don't have one on hand.  So today, I chose the "Love & Sympathy" stamp set and stamped off the design several times using different color combinations.
 .
My first thought was to check out Pinterest just to get an idea going or I might not have gotten anything done.  I found a card that had the image stamped like this but I chose a simpler design for the overall card.
 
The Swiss Dots embossing folder is my "go to" folder so I embossed the front of the card with it.  The image was stamped on white card stock using Primrose Petals and Gumball Green inks.  The sentiment was stamped over the image using VersaFine Onyx Black ink. 
 
The image was then popped unto a second white layer using foam dots and then adhered to a Primrose Petals mat and added to the card front.  Three tiny pearls from Stampin' Up! were to the upper left hand corner and one to the center of the flower. 
 
Thank you so much for stopping by!

Beautiful! Clean and classy!

My card was modeled after one I saw on Pinterest.  That card used a die with larger trees.  This die is from Penny Black.  I liked the large...
