Krafty Chicks #792 - ATG

Good morning lovely friends; it's Thursday so that means it's time for a new challenge over at Krafty Chicks challenge. As we have a 5 week month it means we have an extra 'Anything Goes' challenge this week and Lori is our hostess. It can't get any easier than ATG so come and join in the fun with us. 

The world's your oyster this week, you can make anything you like.  Sadly I needed a sympathy card so that is what I'm sharing today.  I was inspired by a card I saw by Michelle Lupton which you can see here. I changed up the embossing folder, card size and sentiment.  I kept the colour blend although I flipped it.  It's such a pretty colour combo.  I hope you like it.  The colours look a little darker in the photos; they are softer in real life. 

Here is my card:

A closer look at the embossing:

Plus I decorated the inside:

I began by cutting my white panel to 5" x 5 1/2" and ran it through my intri-cut with the 3D embossing folder.  I then took my orange ink and ink blended up from the bottom to about half way.  I then blended in some pink ink up into the right corner leaving the left corner white.  I stamped the sentiment using the orange ink and cut it out with the coordinating die (I also cut 2 more from white and stacked them up with liquid glue).  I added some scrap white card behind my embossing panel and adhered it to the card base with liquid glue (the card base is 5 1/4" x 5 3/4" which I cut from a piece 10 1/2" x 5 3/4" and scored at the 5 1/4" mark on the long side).  I added the sentiment with liquid glue and finished off with some clear sequins.  For the inside I cut another white panel 4 7/8" x 5 3/8" and stamped the sentiment in the centre using the orange ink pad.  I embossed a white panel 4 7/8" x 1 1/2" with the 3D folder and ink blended the orange and pink inks all over and added it to the bottom of the panel with liquid glue.  The panel was adhered the card base with double sided tape.  Such a soft and delicate card and I hope the recipient will take some comfort from it. 

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
