Happy Thursday!  One more day and the weekend will be here. Yeah for the weekend.  Do you have fun plans for the weekend or are you like so many others that try to catch up on the weekend what they didn’t get done through the week, especially when you work outside the home.

My color scheme is my own, could not find a Challenge that used pink and gray.  If you know one for this week let me know.  I shall enter.

I semi used the layout from Stamp, Ink, Paper this week’s challenge.  I used lace, flowers, ribbon, watercolor.  I consider the mat cut from the Sweet Soiree Specialty DSP (Designer Series Paper) to be embossing as it has a texture when you rub your fingers over it.

 

I used Blushing Bride cardstock as my base. Cut at 4-1/4 x 11.  Scored at 5-1/2.

I used Sweet Soiree Specialty DSP for my mat. Cut 4 x 5-1/4.  I adhered it to the card base using Tombow Liquid Glue.

The Smoky Slate mat for the art piece is cut 3-3/4 x 4.

The art piece is Whisper White cardstock cut 3-1/2 x 3-3/4.

I stamped the art piece in Pear Pizzazz  and Melon Mambo using the Thoughts and Prayer stamp set.

I tied adhered a piece of Whisper White ribbon around the art piece and mat securing on the back with Fast Fuse. I tied a bow from the Whisper White ribbon and adhered it to the ribbon with a glue dot.

The sentiment on the front and inside is one I typed and printed as I could not find a sentiment appropriate for my card.

The inside sentiment art piece is stamped on a piece of Whisper White cardstock.  Cut 3-3/4 x 5. I matted this on a piece of Smokey Slate cardstock cut at 4 x 5-1/4.  I adhered it to the card base using Tombow Liquid Glue.

I used the stamp set  Friendship’s Sweetest Thoughts, from the 2018 Occasion catalog; Beautiful Peacock from the Sale-A-Bration catalog and Butterfly Basics from the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog on the inside sentiment.  If you would like a copy of any of these catalogs, contact me.  My bling is Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

A friend had called wanting a sympathy card so this is the finished product.  Here are two others I made also.
