Dear Doily - Words Can't Express

The Dear Doily bundle is amazing!  I've used it on today's card to create the background for my card, a frame for the greeting, and the greeting itself.  The Layering Circle Framelits were used to cut out the greeting.  Dimenionsals were used to give the greeting a little pop.

This card was created as a sympathy card.  The other verses in the stamp set allow for cards for a variety of occasions.

I used Soft Sea Foam, Petal Pink, and Gray Granite for my card, but any variety of colors would work.  To order the products to make this card, simply click on any of the images below to be taken to my Stamp With Melanie online store.

Heartfelt Sympathy

While working to replenish my card stash, I recently created this sympathy card using several new products from the Occasions Catalog.  The background was created with the Dear Doily cling stamp set (#148690).  I stamped Soft Sea Foam ink on a Soft Sea Foam cardstock panel. 

The greeting is from the Well Said bundle (#150609) and framed with the Rectangle Stitched Framelits (#148551).  The word "sympathy" was cut out of Soft Sea Foam and Whisper White card stock and layered.

With Sympathy

Unfortunately, I recently had a need for a sympathy card.  While every sympathy card is tough, this one was one of the toughest.  This is the card I sent to my friend.

With Sympathy

It's time for me to place my order for the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog!  The excitement and anticipation are building!  If you have not placed an order from me within the last 6 months, but still want to receive a copy of the new catalog, just let me know in the next couple of weeks.  I'll be sure one is sent to you!

Unfortunately, I needed a sympathy card recently.   I grabbed a piece of the Springtime Foils (from Sale-a-bration) to use for the base for my image panel and got started.  To start I swiped my Memento Tuxedo Black pad across the Springtime Foils and wiped it with a paper towel to create the matte black finish.  Then, I stamped the images from Remarkable You in Memento and colored them with my Stampin' Blends.  I also used the Blends to color the Whisper White 1/4" Organza Ribbon so it matches the flower.  The greeting is from Rose Wonder.

With Sympathy

Hi there stampers,

My least favorite type of card to make is a sympathy card.  Yet, I found myself in need of one a couple of weeks ago.  A very good friend lost her mother just a few days after Mom's 100th birthday.  One hundred years!  Wow!

Anyhow, I digress.  So what set would I use for my card?  I thought about it for a couple days before I settled on one of my favorite sets that I haven't used lately - Rose Wonder.
