Sympathy Card

One of the cards that we all dread having to make but the sentiment (PTI Stamp) on this made the card a little easier to put together.

It was made for my dear Uncle's Billie's wife Elaine, he lost his battle against cancer on Friday morning. We are taking comfort in the fact that he is now out of his pain.

Porcelain Bouquet

I love the clean look of this card, I used the Rubberstamp Tapestry Porcelain Bouquet stamp set, the inks used are Color Cubes Indigo and Lavender.

The cut out shapes were made using the Nestabilities Label Dies.

Again I ran around the shapes with an embossing tool after they had been cut to emboss the edges.

The ribbon was another story, I had no matching ribbon, so, I used white sheer ribbon and stained it with the indigo Color Cube Tra-dA a perfect match.

You can see in this picture that the center label shape is attached to the navy insert, you can also see that the vase has been cut out and attached with foam pads to give a 3d effect.

Golden Tree

Made using the Nestabilities Labels dies I love the way these nest together and also allow an embossed edge, once I've cut the shape I leave it in the die and just run around the edge with an embossing tool, much easier than searching for the tan mat.

the paper is a K&Co which I've had in my stash forever I used stickles diamond to bling the paper up and a Martha Stewart Border punch on the bottom of the paper.

The stamp I used is from the Father Knows Best stamp set from Papertrey Ink, heat embossed this with gold powder.
