A Sympathy Card

I don't like having to make Sympathy Cards because it means someone that means a lot to me has lost someone they loved very much.  My Step-Niece lost her Mother-in-Law last week and I wanted to let her know that we were thinking of her and her family. 

I used Melon Mambo for the Card Base and the Scallop Edge at the bottom and the Scallop Circle.  The Stampe Sets I used were Upsy Daisy (love that one) and Teeny Tiny Words.  I Used Small Oval Punch and Scallop Oval Punch and some Basic earl Jewels.  The ribbon is Blushing Bride Poly Ribbon and the layer underneath is Blushing Bride CS.  The second layer I ran through the Finial Press Embossing Folder and sponged with Melon Mambo Ink.  I sponged around the Circle and Oval with Melon Mambo Ink also.  I stamped the background using a stamp from the Confetti set (can't see to good in the picture).

Best Wishes

Another Brother-in-law Birthday. I used the Tropical Party, Perfect Punches and Short & Sweet Stamp Sets. I colored the image with water color pencils. The base card is Pacific Point CS, along with the 2-3/8" Scallop Circle Punch and the layers of DSP are from the Sweet and Sour Specialty DSP pack. I used Whisper White for the "Best Wishes" and punched with the Oval Scallop and Large Oval Punches.

Hope he likes it! Keep on Stampin' ~ Big hugs, Jul~
