Get Well & Sympathy

Feel better Soon-Back on Your Feet

Today’s card features two sets that are retiring, Back on Your Feet and Positive Thoughts. Don’t wait until the last day, remember products are while supplies last.

I love using our watercolor pencils to add color to so many of our stamp sets so today I choose to highlight the Sloth. I stamped the greenery from Positive Thoughts in Shaded Spruce directly to a 3½ x 4½ panel of white CS. On a piece of white scrap I stamped the sloth in Memento Black ink, colored him with the watercolor pencils and fussy cut him with my paper snips.

I love the way it looks like he is hanging from the vines. I stamped the greeting in Memento black ink and mounted the white panel to a 3¾ x 5 piece of Early Espresso CS, then mounted it to my Shades Spruce card.

This was a fast and relatively easy card, if you minus the fussy cutting. I personally love to fussy cut, but I know many of you are not fans. Coloring is another thing that I love, so yes, that might be a stumbling block for some, but for those of you who love to color, have fun!

Join me again tomorrow for another retiring favorite. If you missed the retiring list, click on the button below to download the pdf.

Simply Marbleous Designer Series Paper

I hope you have been having fun with the new Simply Marbleous Designer Series Paper in the Sale-A-Bration catalog. It really is spectacular. Today’s cards is a clean and simple, quick and easy card using this fancy paper that is FREE with a $50 order.

This 6 x 6 paper pack makes creating clean and simple cards a snap. The paper does the heavy lifting because all I did was layer it to a piece of Basic Black cardstock and then mounted in on a Bermuda Bay card.

I used the Stamparatus to add the greeting directly to the Simply Marbleous DSP. The greeting is from the Artfully Layered stamp set and is stamped in Memento Black ink. Just like that I created this card in less than three minutes.

Daisy Garden Sympathy Favorite Things Friday

Happy Friday! I hope you had a blessed week and are ready to do some crafting this weekend. Today, I thought I would share a card I created with one of my favorite background stamps, Daisy Garden. While sending a sympathy card is never fun, it is important to let the people we care about know we are thinking of them and what better way then sending a hand-made card.

This card was stamped in the white craft ink and heat embossed with some white embossing powder. You can find the powder and heat tool on page 128 in the 2021-2022 annual catalog.

Supplies

Cutting Measurements

All Measurement=inches  CS=Cardstock DSP=Designer Series Paper  Landscape Position=Long side   Portrait Position=short side

  • Basic Black CS-  5½ x 8½, (card base), 4 x 5¼
  • Basic White CS:4-1/8 x 5-3/8, 4 x 5 ¼,7/8 x 3 ½
  • Daisy Garden Background Stamp
  • White Craft Ink
  • White Embossing Powders
  • Memento Black Ink
  • Heat Tool
  • Stamparatus

Directions

  • Score card base in landscape position (aka longer side) at 4¼. Fold and burnish to create card.
  • Use the Stamparatus to stamp the Daily Garden image on Basic Black CS with White Craft ink.

  • On Basic White CS strip, stamp greeting in Memento Black ink and layer to card front.

I love the look of the white on black and think it is perfect for a Sympathy card. Enjoy the weekend. And don’t forget if you are planning to place an order that is less that $150, please use the host code. You don’t want to miss out on collecting those points for your extra shopping perks.
