Get Well & Sympathy

Designer Series Paper-Favorite Things Friday!

Favorite Things Friday, Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature, Get Well & Sympathy / January 20, 2023

After our hearts blog hop on Wednesday I decided to give the Heart Punch pack another try. Sometimes when an idea in my head looks totally different on paper, I turn to one of my favorite things, our fabulous designer series paper packs. After all it is really hard to mess up a card with all our wonderful pattern choices.

Today I combined the Dainty Flowers DSP pack and the Hues of Happiness paper pack and I have to admit, I am not disappointed. I love how the colors in these two papers come together to make a super simple sympathy card. While sending sympathy cards is never on my favorite list, creating cards with love is.

Project Measurements

Fresh Freesia CS – 5½ x 8½ (card base)
Basic White CS – 4 x 5¼
Gorgeous Grape CS – 4 x 5¼, scrap
Dainty Flowers DSP- 3¾ x 5
Hues of Happiness DSP-scrap
Something Fancy Stamp Set
Heart Punch Pack

Feel better Soon-Back on Your Feet

Get Well & Sympathy / March 30, 2022 / Back on Your Feet, Positive Thoughts

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.
