A few weeks ago I posted an ocean scene card from Virginia Beach, click here if you missed that post. Unfortunately we are heading back to the ocean, not for a visit with my mother -in-law this time, but for her funeral. It is hard to believe that only 6 days after returning to St. Louis from a great visit the Lord called her home so quickly. Rest in Peace, mom! So of course I thought it would be appropriate to post an Ocean Sympathy card today.
I began with a Misty Moonlight card base and added a layer of Mossy Meadow. My Basic White CS measures 3¾ x 5 and that is where I did my blending. My ocean/sky was created with Balmy Blue and Misty Moonlight. You can use the Blending Brushes or sponges. I tend to be a sponge girl, but either will work.
The greenery is stamped with Mossy Meadow and Old Olive ink. The sandy beach and the rocks were stamped with Crumb Cake. With Deepest Sympathy is part of the Something Fancy stamp set that was featured last month in the mini and is now in our 2023-2024 annual catalog.
I almost forgot to mention the star of the show, Oceanfront. I do love this set and I love visiting the ocean, but I am sure this trip will be very different from 2 weeks ago. Check out this set, you won’t be disappointed. I hope this card inspires you to create something beautiful.
