Hello there,

Last week I unfortunately had to make one of those card that nobody enjoys making, a sympathy card. 

I made it for a lady who comes to my card class who sadly lost her husband.

As I had not got a specific sympathy stamp set I decided to use the very versatile Just Believe set with the spotlight technique. Colours are Baja Breeze, Pretty in Pink and Early Espresso.

Sincere Salutations for the sentiment, inked to make it pop a bit more,

I added a subtles button to the satin ribbon across the bottom, tied on with linen thread,

and a stamped off image for the inside to finish

Not a lot of chat today, I think I went on enough yesterday ;-) lol!

Thanks for stopping by today,

Stampin' Hugs,

Hello there,

A little later than planned today as I had to finish this, I had it half done for a couple of days and to be honest I am still not sure if I like it as it is? hmm, well, here I am sharing it with you today but I might still change it up a little?? I'll let you know...

Anyway, I loved this weeks Mojo Sketch and I knew I wanted to use the Subtles DSP stack, so that was a good start eh? ;-)

I made the rosette from a strip of DSP which was 12"x1" and scored it at 1/2 cm intervals, nice mix of metric and imperial for you there ;-)

I sprayed just the rosette with shimmer paint mixed with alcohol to create a pearly wash, Subtles buttons top the circles which were stamped with Dot, Dot, Dot using versamark, bow tied with Seam Binding in Baja Breeze, LOVE this colour!

 Inside I added a little detail too with the sentiment in here from Crazy for Cupcakes cut with Modern Label Punch,

Well, do let me know what you think,

I am off to work in a mo to do training, really looking forward to that (not!)
Have a lovely day in the sun,

Stampin' Hugs
