Leafy sympathy card

It's never the right time to make sympathy cards. Not long ago, I had several friends for whom I needed to make these cards.

Stampin' Up! Thoughts & Prayers sympathy card by Angela Lovel, Angela's PaperArts

To create these cards I used a Stampin' Up! Whisper White card base and embossed the front of the card with the Layered Leaves Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I then stamped the floral branch from the Thoughts & Prayers stamp set in both Wisteria Wonder and Pear Pizzazz ink onto Whisper White card stock before adhering it onto Wisteria Wonder card stock and the card front.

The sentiment panel is from the Rose Wonder stamp & Rose Garden Thinlits sets and sentiments are from the same stamp set or the Thoughts & Prayers stamp set. Some Pear Pizzazz Shimmer Ribbon completes the card.

Thoughts & Prayers sympathy card

You never know when a sympathy card may be need for a family member or friend. I unfortunately had to make this card for a friend recently but it could be used as a general 'thinking of you' card too just to let someone know you care.

I sponged the centre focal point with a combination of Stampin' Up!'s Island Indigo, Lost Lagoon and Mint Macaron inks. To get the sponging straight, I masked off the sides with post-it-notes. I then used the Thoughts and Prayers stamp set and stamped the tree and sentiment in Early Espresso. I used the now retired Scallop Trim punch to create the delicate Early Espresso scallop border and added a candy dot in each corner. The centrepiece was then layered on top of Bohemian Designer Series Paper and an Early Espresso card base.

The key products used on this card have been listed below - just click on the picture and it will take you to my online store where the product can be purchased. Papercrafting classes are available.
