Once again we have loss in our church, a man's Father has passed away, I went back to a design I have done in the past in which I add inks to my acrylic stamping block, mist with water and then apply that to the card. It came out a little blotchy in areas so I took a wet paint brush and smoothed it out a bit. My Acrylic block has that wavy edge to it.
I die cut the tree twice to give it a little more dimension and added my stamped sentiment.
- Distress inks - Tumbled Glass and Peeled paint for background
- Impression Obsession - Bare Tree die
- Taylored Expression - Care & Comfort stamp sentiment
We still have some lingering snow even though we have had rain and warm temperatures for two days but the sun has come out once again, and we have warmer temperatures. I hope you are all well wherever you are!
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today and hope you have a great week ahead!

What a beautiful design for a sympathy card. Every time I turn around (and I see it's the same for you), I'm needing to create a sympathy card. I know of so many people who have passed away in the last year ... sad & scary!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your card will be of great comfort to the family! Stay healthy my friend!
Lovely sympathy card design Connie.
