Deepest Sympathy

 Our friend recently lost his Mother and I had remembered this image we had made in one of our zoom meetings where we used different dye inks on a solid image stamp and then stamped onto glossy paper.  I cut it out with my stitched die and added the sentiment and thought it was perfect for a sympathy card.


  • Penny Black - Effulgent stamp
  • Distress inks - Scattered Straw, Spiced Marmalade and brushed Corduroy
  • PPD - Wavy Stitch Rectangle die
  • Hero Arts - Everyday Sayings


Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today, for those of you in the U.S. Hope you stay cool and safe with this heat.
