Sadly I've been sending out a number of sympathy cards lately. I find them difficult to make so I like to have some made in advance to be ready when needed.
I coloured the image with markers and fussy-cut. I adhered it to a second print-out of the image, which I ink-blended with Distress Oxides, and popped up the leaves with foam tape. I stamped the sympathy sentiment (Gina K. Designs) and then finished off the card with lots of red gems.
I would like to support the following challenges: Ally's Angels 25 AG 2/3; Cardz TV 97 AG 1/3; Crafty Friends 117 Add Embellishments (I added gems) 1/3; DL.ART August AG UE 2/d; Double D Pearls, Gems, or Rhinestones 1/3; Imagine That Digis Creative Playground 8 AG 2/3; Polkadoodles 35 AG 1/2; Scribbles Designs Include a Sentiment 1/3; Simon Says Stamp Monday S is for... Sympathy 1/5; Simon Says Stamp Wednesday AG 1/5; STAMPlorations Theme and Sketch Stamps and AG (sentiment is a clear stamp) UE; STAMPlorations Never-ending AG UE; Word Art Wednesday 402-403 AG 1/5 wk1
Thanks for looking at my card! Wishing you a joyful day!
