Message of Sympathy

 

Welcome

Sympathy cards are not always easy ones to make, so I like to have some on hand.

This newly released set of stencils from A Colorful Life Designs is great for creating simple ink blended card front background.  There are many different sizes in these sets too.

So, meet the newly released:

Marvelous Masks Arches Stencil

Here's what I did to create my card.

• I placed one of the Marvelous Masks Arches stencils over a piece of white cardstock.
• Beginning at the top of the arch, I inked with some Shaded Lilac, Peacock Feathers and some Uncharted Mariner Distress Oxide inks.
• I lifted the stencil off and added a mask along the bottom edge so my stamping would be contained along the bottom of the inking.
• I placed it into my Misti to stamp out the trees and the sentiment.
• I glued the panel onto a piece of navy cardstock, then onto a white A2 sized card base.
• I added 3 silver gems under the sentiment to finish the card off.

Here are the stencils I used:
