I have a Sympathy card I needed for my son's teacher and family. Her father-in-law passed away this week. Pretty sad, and my son is super close to his teacher. So we wanted to make her a special card.
On another note, I had a non-bloggy friend ask me about using Paper Smooches stamps in a non-cutsie and whimsical way, so I thought this might be a good example for her.
In my case, I pulled an inspiration layout from the current Mojo Monday.
I used With Sympathy from Paper Smooches Sentiment Sampler. I die-cut a burlap heart from a scrap of burlap added a tulle flower, paper rose, and tucked in some white tulle from my stash to the left of the sentiment panel following the prompt of the sketch.
I took a length of Aqua Mist seam binding and wrapped it around and tied in a bow and embellished with some Natural Hemp Cord and embellished with an Aqua Button. The papers are from My Mind's Eye Lost & Found Portobello Road.
Well, that about covers the basics.
As mentioned, inspiration was found at:
