Sympathy Card

 This is the type of card you dread making but you know that you have to put your heart into it. For this card, I used an embossing folder by Sheena Douglas called Luscious Loosestrife. I've had it for quite some time but never came up with a way to use it until now. I used Copper Shimmer cardstock from Michaels and boy let me tell you, it is hard to stamp on it without it smearing. I know to use Staz On but I didn't have any Navy Blue so used Ranger Denim Ink and heat set it. It worked. The butterflies were created with the Martha Stewart 3 in 1 Butterfly Punch. 

Inside: Sentiment is Justrite Caring Thoughts stamp set.

Sympathy Card

 I loved the way this card turned out, even though it's for a sad occasion. I used the Impression Obsession Calla Lilly stamp. The embossing folder I used is from Crafters Companion, it's called the Leaf Vein folder. "With Sympathy" is from the Close To My Heart Sincere Expressions stamp set.

Thinking of you card

This card is for a crafty friend of mine that is going through a difficult time. She lost her husband and then was diagnosed with cancer. Letting people know that you're thinking and praying for them sometimes helps on those extra hard days.

The flower bouquet is the Bella Bouquet die by Memory Box

I tried my hand at Vellum flowers on this card. I really like how they turned out. The card base is white and gold foil polka dots. The foil is hard to photograph.

Sorry For Your Loss Card

Anna Griffin "Say It Anyway" Stamp set was used to make the label for this card. I used a gold doily from a pack that I had gotten in my Hobby Lobby clearance haul a few months ago. The cardstock is from DCWV Whimsical World and the card base is from the Tuesday Morning haul of Fun Stampers Journey.  The picture doesn't do it justice, it's a beautiful deep burgundy.

Thank you for stopping by.

Sympathy Card - maybe

I made this as a Sympathy Card but once it was done, I was like "this is so not an appropriate card to  send someone that's grieving". It's much too chipper! I'm stuck with it unless I decide to change it later to a Birthday Card or something.

Spellbinders Beautiful Lockett die and Spellbinders Classic Oval dies

were used for the label. The borders are Spellbinders Graceful Fans

Thinking of you

I finally got around to playing with some of my dies today and this is what I came up with. I'm trying to go through and use each of my die sets (oh Lord!) at least once. I plan on purging my craft room soon and anything I haven't used must go.  I better get busy!

Card made with Lawn Fawn Road Border die and Rose die
