Today I am in need of a Sympathy card. And of course I have some in my stash but I didn't bother to even look. I wanted to make a new fresh card. Our retired pastor's husband passed away and I wanted to make a new special card for her.
For my card I used the "Thoughts & Prayers" set. I especially like this card because it is designed for making sympathy cards.
The flower part of the images was colored using markers and huffing on the image before stamping it. I did the same with the words too, though for those I just used an ink pad. But I did huff on it to add a bit more moisture to the ink so I would get a nice solid image, and I did!

The paper is from the "Everyday Enchantment" pack. That pack has a lot of pretty images in it. I have barely begun to make cards and "stuff" using that pretty pack!!!
The front of the card is a piece of white card stock cut 4-1/8" x 5-5/8". I stamped the flower vine image on the top part and on the bottom part I added the decorative paper. Then I added the ribbon around the front of the card. I used some Chocolate Chip satin ribbon.
The words were punched out with the large oval punch and behind that I used the scalloped oval punch and punched out two pieces from Chocolate Chip card stock. I set them in place using Dimensionals. And that was pretty much it to the card. Well, other than using the words from the set on the inside. I am ready to pop it off in the mail.
Thank you SO much for visiting today,
Wanda
