Today's card was created using My Digital Studio after I was inspired by a layout in a paper catalog I received. I thought the Lovely As a Tree digital stamp would work out well for this sympathy card.

 I lightly water colored Soft Suede over parts of the digital stamp to create shadowing. I also used the Simply Scored tool and paper piercing to give the card a handmade touch.

Thanks so much for stopping by and visiting!

Supplies:

CS: Very Vanilla, Marina Mist

INK: Digital Soft Suede and Early Espresso

Sympathy cards are just not fun cards to have to make or give away. This is a card I made for someone who lost a baby they were going to adopt...so sad. I used the Just Believe stamp set and earthy colors (Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Soft Suede, So Saffron, Old Olive, Calypso Coral) with some sponging to soften the feel of the card. I hope the card brings them a moment of comfort.

Sympathy Card CASE

Today I'm sharing a sympathy card I CASE'd from Mary Fish. I loved her color combination and her clean and simple layout.

I changed out a few details using Just Believe and Petite Pairs (one of my favorites) stamp sets. I used the Fancy Fan embossing folder to emboss the card front, and a navy Sharpie marker to color my rhinestones.
I've posted the supply list below:
