Sympathy


I found blank gate-fold cards with envelopes on sale (12 for $1.97) at Hobby Lobby.  Patterned paper, ribbon were from my stash.  Butterflies were punched with Martha Stewart punch, and dotted with Viva Decor Ice White.  Scalloped circle and circle were cut from pre-loaded images on my Cricut Imagine.  Since they aren't in their original packaging, I don't know where the stamps came from, but the ink is Memento Tuxedo Black.

Day 11: Super Sketchy Sunday

This A2 size card was  made with paper from my scrap drawer.  I used the Gypsy to adjust dimensions on the pink and black mats and cut them out with the Expression.  Since most of my stamps are not in their original packaging, I am not sure where these came from.  Dress form is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  Tape measure was stamped with VersaMark and Tim Holtz Worn Lipstick, and then I added clear embossing powder and heat set it.  Used a 1 1/4" circle punch, and when I know what sentiment I want to use, I'll stamp it on a pink half-circle and adhere it.  The buttons are from my stash.

Day 10: BFF Birthday Card

I have had the same BFF since we were 14 years old.  I saw a Father's Day card with the sentiment "No one could ever fill your shoes", and thought that was a very appropriate sentiment for her birthday since we've been BFFs almost 45 years (which then tells you how old we are!  ha ha).  The sentiment was printed on pink cardstock with my computer, and I used a 1 1/4 circle punch to cut it out.  The A2 size gate-fold card was made from white card stock.  I used my Gypsy and Gypsy Wanderings cartridge for the high heels and cut them with my Expression.  The scalloped circle was cut with the Imagine.  All paper came from my scrap drawer, and the bling was from my stash.
