My friend Beth and fellow dog walker asked for sympathy cards for pet owners who lost their beloved family members.
The first card was for someone who lost their yellow lab. I grabbed my My Favorite Things Labrador stamp and colored him in with my prisma pencils. I used Distress Inks for the background and DCWV pet paper pack. I finished it off with a Hero Arts sentiment and a dog bone paper clip.
Here's the SFYTT sketch if you want to get your card in by September 30th!
The second card Beth needed was for a cat that passed. I used a Mark's Finest Papers cat stamp that the wonderful Cheryl @ She Stamps sent me!! I kept this card a bit simpler because the background paper was pretty busy itself. I used a MFT sentiment and some black gems.
OK - it's Sunday and ALL NEXT WEEK I'll be showing items that Cindy and I are bringing to our craft fairs this season. We're still working on a bunch of stuff, but have enough done to give you something to look at!!!
See you soon!!

Hi Maria,
Sorry that you have to make sympathy cards. But what a great job you have done... love the way you have coloured the background and the lab. Also the papers in the first card match perfectly.
The second card is bold and black and white. It needs nothing else. It looks perfect. The black gems add to it's elegance.

I'm really looking forward to seeing your craft fair creations! :)
BOTH are so cute Maria. Sad to have to make these but they're get to have when you need them too. I know your friend will be proud to send these to someone.

These are wonderful, sorry that you have to make them, but you really did such a wonderful job and I am sure they will be well received. Can't wait to see what you and Cindy have been working on.

Both of these cards are so sweet. You did a wonderful job. I am so glad you were able to use the stamp set. I thought that you would put them to good use. :)
