Thinking Of You

Good morning all,

Today's card is a little sympathy card.
Such a difficult occasion to make a card for but important to do!

I've used an A6 Landscape Linen embossed CS base, with a matt of blue.

I simply embossed the panel on which I had printed

the sentiment. The font I have used is Sweetly Broken.

I added 3 little punched butterflies.

Hope you like it!

Thanks for stopping by!

The Blessing

Good Morning all!

It's Thursday already! How's your week been?

A good one I hope!

So, it's time for me to share a Just Inklined card with you!

This time, I've made a little sympathy card.

I always find them a challenge to make.

The gorgeous image I have used is called 

The Blessing

.I think it's just perfect for such an occasion but would also be 

suitable for other religious occassions such as 

Christenings, Confimations, Wedding Blessings etc.

I made the sentiment on my PC using a free font called

Sweetly Broken 

Here's a closer look at the image, coloured up with my promarkers

 & inked with Milled Lavender Distress Ink.

I've used a Cuttlebug Script embossing folder for the white mat.

I did brush over it with the distress ink but it doesn't

show up at all in the photos!

I also added a little piece of satin ribbon from my stash.

Thanks for the visit, leave me some love & I will

try to visit you & do the same!

Sympathy Card

Good Morning All,

The card I have to share with you today is one of those difficult ones to make.

Especially when it is a young person who has passed away.

I didn't want to go with sombre colours as I feel 

a young persons life should be celebrated.

 I'm sure we all feel differently about this but I like to think of 

a young soul soaring, finally free of pain & suffering!

I went for a simple design, on an A6 tentfold card.

The CS is linen embossed, I like the texture.

I added matt of coloured CS & a panel which was embossed with 

a Cuttlebug Swirls embossing folder.

I found the quote on the internet. So apt as it's by

Robert Louis Stevenson who was from our very own Edinburgh.

Cut out with a nestie & inked with Spun Sugar DI

whilst still in the die. A few little pearls added at the corners.

A sheer ribbon bow to finish off.

Thanks for popping in.
