Oct 7, 2016 | Sympathy |
Although I planned on making a supply of sympathy cards, I have not done it yet. Murphy's Law – I need 2 so that is what I am sharing today. And, I better get some made for the future!
Ginger's Snaps:
- Whisper White Card Base 4-1/4" x 11", scored at 5-1/2"
- Blooms & Bliss Designer Series Paper Mat 4" x 5-1/4"
- Using a stamp from Touches of Texture, stamp a background with Sahara Sand Ink on a Whisper White C.S. Scallop Circle cut with the Layering Circles Framelits.
- Stamp the flower mage from Touches of Texture with Archival Black Ink.
- Watercolor using an Aqua Painter, Mint Macaron & Island Indigo Inks.
- Cut an Oval from Mint Macaron C.S. using the Layering Ovals Framelits.
- Layer the stamped image on this piece so that the Mint Macaron C.S. shows on the left side & the bottom.
- Stamp the sentiment from Rose Wonder with Island Indigo Ink on a piece of Whisper White C.S. that has background noise. Banner cut the right end & attach under the art piece.
This is a simple card but it took some time because I kept changing the elements of my card. First I had an Island Indigo Mat under the dsp but it made my card too dark. I also tried putting the Mint Macaron Mat around the scalloped circle but I decided that more color was needed to separate the stamped image from the sentiment.
