Sympathy Card

One of the guys I work with lost his Mother, this is the Sympathy Card I created for him.

I found this technique on Mary Fish's Blog, she even has a video to go with it.I used the new Elegant Butterfly Punch and the Occasions Paper-Piercing Pack for the butterfly.  The stamp set I used was Petite Pairs and Polka Dot Parade DSP.  I used the Butterfly Sizzlet and punched some extra butterflies to go inside the card.  I added a strip of the Polka Dot Parade DSP to the inside and on the flap of the envelope to bring it all together.

Saturday, January 28th Workshop

Here's one of the cards we created at my Workshop on Saturday. 

Cherry Cobbler CS was used for the base of the card and also to make the little hearts with the new Embosslits Fashionable Hearts.The Typewriter and you're just my type is from the You're My Type Stamp Set.  On the inside the silhouette stamp is from the Take It to Heart Stamp set.  The typewriter was embossed with Black Embossing Powder.  The strip on the front is Riding Hood Red Pleated Ribbon and the inside Cherry Cobbler on the bottom was punched with the Hearts Border Punch and the little black strip was punched with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch.  The idea came from Mary Fish at Stampin' Pretty who says she got it from Ellen Smallwood.  Thanks so much for sharing ladies.

Have a GREAT week and keep Stampin'!  Hugs, Julia
