Hello Everyone,
I have for you today another sympathy card that I have made. It has seemed like I needed a number of sympathy cards this fall. I once again went to my Thoughts and Prayers stamp set. This time I tried a different technique and created a card with the same set I have used before with a very different look.
I stamped the flowers from this set and actually stamped it multiple times to create a group of stamped images in as straight of a line as I could get with this stamp. I then took my 1″ square punch and punched out the white squares. I liked using the punch for this step because it allowed me to see exactly what my square would look like once punched. Cutting the squares would have been more difficult. I did cut the layers behind the stamped layer they were just squares and were quick to cut strips into the right size squares. I also added the border using the scallop trim border punch. My colors were Pretty in Pink, Marina Mist, and Wild Wasabi (I think. It has been awhile and I didn’t take notes on my colors.) I once again needed the card and didn’t have time to take notes or make me a sample. I am just glad that I got a picture taken. You can use what ever colors strike you. I wanted something that was definitely on the feminine side since this card was not going to a couple but to a twenty-something women.
Here is my supply list for this project. All items listed are from Stampin’ Up and include their item numbers.
