Happy Friday friends. I hope you're having a good day and looking forward to the weekend. We are currently in local lockdown in my part of South Wales so although on a day to day basis things are pretty much the same we cannot leave our county for the time being. It's still a very worrying and stressful time isn't it. Fingers crossed the minority will now listen and things can return to 'normal' soon.
Today I have a sympathy card that I made a little while ago for a friend who lost her husband but didn't have chance to share with you. It's fairly clean and simple but I have to say I love it.
Here is my card:
close up of the card:
I began by taking a white card panel and using a stencil and distress inks I lightly inked the lower left corner of the panel. I choose a simple floral image and stamped it over the stencilling in black ink and added a sentiment above. I layered the white panel onto a black and green panel and added this to a white card blank. I didn't add any embellishments as I loved it as it was and didn't want to spoilt it. As my card was 5 x 7 in size I used my We R Memory Keepers envelope punch board and made my own envelope.
I am going to enter this card into the following challenges:
CCC Digi Creations challenge - monochrome
Krafty Chicks challenge - all occasions
Daisy Chain challenge - CAS
I hope you have a great weekend. Stay safe everyone.
Hugs,
