Good Morning Everyone! I hope your week is going well, now that its on the downhill side to the weekend, it has to be good.
I was asked by a friend to make a Sympathy card, these are not the easiest cards for me to make when making them for people I'm unfamiliar with. This type card is so personal. So I had to set out to find what would be fitting, my eyes fell on one of my favorite sets from Sweet n Sassy. I love Serene Silhouettes and it was the perfect choice for this card. What do you think?....
I did use a great sketch from Card Patterns for the layout. I created the background using baby wipes, re-inkers and glossy card stock. I like the simple layout, it's very versatile. The embossing and flowers added feminity and softness.
Supplies:
Card stock: Glossy White, Sahara Sand, Night of Navy, Brocade Blue (SU!)
Stamps/Ink: Serene Silhouettes (SNSS), Mini Messages (PTI), Tuxedo Black (Memento), Bashful Blue,
Lavendar Lace, Certainly Celery
Tools: Circle cutter (CM), Cuttlebug, Textile Embossing folder, Word Window punch, baby wipes
Embellishments: Flowers (Prima), Pearls (Recollections)
