Scottish Thistle

Good morning to you all! 

Todays little card is made using a Just Inklined image.

Sympathy cards are never easy to do but when I thought about it,

this was the perfect image for my card.

Scottish Thistle, coloured lightly with flexmarkers to give

a wash effect & teamed with Tartan Design Paper

from Southfield Stationers.

I cut the image out with a round nestie & inked the edges with a

liquid chalk inkpad then matted onto a piece of cardstock

the same colour as the base card.

I added a little tartan bow & a computer generated sentiment.

The font I used was Papyrus you can get it here for free

There you have it, a quick & simple sympathy card.

Due to the nature of this card, I have decided not to enter it in any challenges!

La Pashe Hand Tied Lillies

Good morning lovely bloggers & friends!

Here is todays card

The image is Hand Tied Cala Lillies.

one of the range of Clear Polymer Stamps available at 

A perfect image for a sympathy card,wedding card, engagement

or perhaps even Easter.

I opted for a White On White layout & coloured the image

 with  a mix of Promarkers & Flexmarkers for a subtle look.

The ivory satin ribbon was left over from some wedding invitaions I made.

The embossed panels were done with cuttlebug embossing folder (I think)!

The image was stamped with Clear Versamark Ink

& then embossed with clear embossing powder.
Thanks for dropping in I hope you like it!
