With Sympathy- card

Hello and welcome to the post for today. I have had to create another Sympathy card and for some reason I always gravitate towards soft brown colors for these types of cards. I used the Hero Arts Clings Antique Writing background stamp https://www.pinterest.com/pin/359091770260685212/ 
and also the Hero Arts "With Sympathy" stamp set (retired) for the sentiment. A little sponging and a little gold thread brings this card together.

I created an A2 card base from SU Tip Top Taupe card stock.  I cut a panel of SU Basic Black card stock and adhered it to the card front.   I then cut a slightly smaller panel of Very Vanilla card stock, inked the edges and used the background stamp and Tip Top Taupe ink to stamp the image on this panel.

I stamped the sentiment on a scrap of Tip Top Taupe card stock using Memento Tuxedo black ink, sponged the edges and then cut it down.  Using some Gold Metallic thread, I made a messy nest and then adhered the sentiment over the top of it.

Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think.

Graceful Garden friendship card

Here's my second card for the weekend. I just can't stop with the butterflies and I wanted to feature the ink colors in a clean and simple card. Sequins just had to be added for a little sparkle. The colors I used will be retiring soon so if you like them go and grab then while you can. I hope you'll take a look at the project below and let me know what you think. Supplies:

Hang Your Stocking Christmas card 7-28-19

Hello crafters and welcome to some Christmas inspiration on the blog today. I am in the process of using up my stash and making as many cards as possible before the hustle bustle of the season begins. The card for today features the Hang Your Stocking stamp set and Festive Farmhouse DSP (designer series paper). I stamped the stocking and the sentiment using Cherry Cobbler ink and then stamped the snowflakes with VersaMark ink and heat set with some silver embossing powder. I love how this card came out and more inspiration is on the way. Take a look at the project below and please let me know what you think. Supplies used: . I also popped up the focal image using Scotch 3M Foam tape. I hope you have enjoyed today's project and will check back often for more inspiration. Thank you for visiting.
