Dear Ones~
There's a new challenge up over at Double D and the topic is SKIES!! Here is the Mood Board for your inspiration:
And here is my card:
Sadly, this has to be a sympathy card. One which I was very sorry to have to make. I have this fabulous stencil by A Colorful Life called Realistic Clouds. I think it's aptly named, it's very fun to use. I decided to heat emboss the greeting on some vellum this time. I love that look. The dragonfly was painted with Stampin' Up Inks. Then I added some Stickles.
The Ingredients:
GKD White and Black Onyx Card Stock
A Colorful Life Realistic Cloud Stencil
Stampin' Up Inks In:
*Seaside Spray
*Purple Posy
*Powder Pink
SU Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set
Just Rite Sympathy Handwritten Sentiments for Greeting
Trinity Stamps Bubble Blowout Baubles
Stardust Stickles

Beautiful card Judy, love how soft it all looks with the vellum stamped sentiment! It ;s always hard to make sympathy cards but this one is perfect! Happy St. Patrick's Day!
ReplyDeleteJudy, this is beautiful. I'd never heard of A Colorful Life before until reading yours and Barbs posts using this cloud stencil. Searching them up now... Anyway, your card is stunning. Sorry you had a need for it but I'm sure your thoughtfulness and love will bring much comfort.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful....how serene. Makes for a lovely Sympathy card. I also use dragonflies a lot on mine. Your cloud filled background is so soft and lovely and I adore a Vellum strio with a sentiment. This is beautiful...just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOH WOW ... I'm so sorry you needed to make another sympathy card but you've certainly succeeded in making it a very beautiful & soothing card! That sky is just gorgeous as is the dragonfly! GREAT JOB! Hugs
ReplyDeleteI am sorry that you had to make a sympathy card, I seem to be making those more now too. I have pinned this one as I will will making my next sympathy card like yours's. I love the look of the softer clouds and the vellum. I am sorry for your loss.
