Dandelion Wishes Loves Botanical Butterfly

Dandelion Wishes Loves Botanical Butterfly

My card today is a sympathy card and the stamp set is Dandelion Wishes.  Even after a loved one is gone, the love they leave behind blows around us like the wind blowing the dandelions no matter the length of time.

My inspiration for the card sketch layout is from CAS(E) This Sketch.

 

This card is really easy to make but it may look otherwise with all the steps listed. Here are the steps for creating this card:

  1. Whisper White card stock – card base- 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″

  12. Adhere this greeting panel to the Basic Black mat panel using Liquid Glue.
  13. Pop the greeting panel over the two butterfly panels on the front of the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  14. Adhere a green heart to the left lower corner of the card front.
  15. Basic Black card stock – cut a panel 4″ x 5-1/4″ mat for sentiment panel.
  16. Whisper White card stock – cut a panel 3-3/4″ x 5″.
  17. Using Memento Black Ink stamp the sentiment using a stamp from the August 2018 Paper Pumpkin stamp set.

Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Greetings

Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Greetings

A simple one layer sympathy card.  

My design is from CAS(E) this Sketch.     

The base is Whisper White cardstock and the art piece is Whisper White, both are embossed with the Subtle Embossing Folder.  The art piece is cut using a rectangle stitched die.  The stamp set  for the tree is a retired set from Stampin Up called White Christmas.  

The inside sentiment is stamped on a panel of Whisper White.  The sentiment is so old I do not remember where it is from.  It may be one that I had printed on my computer as it was in my stash of already printed sentiments.

Thank you for stopping by today.  As always my hope is that you found encouragement and inspiration.
