Sympathy Cards

My friend Gisela asked me to make her two sympathy cards. I was browsing through the SCS gallery and saw THIS beautiful card by Theresa, I loved how she blended the edges of the card with the pink and yellow - so I thought I'd try it. I used my Inkadinkado butterfly stamp and stamped it directly to the card front. Then I stamped another one with pink colorbox and embossed with iridescent powder. I cut out the wings and popped them up. The sentiment is from Rubber Stampede and I added some bling and ribbon.




The second card combines Cuttlebug Swiss Dots and swirl embossing folders, punches, a Denami sentiment stamp and Autumn leaves flower stamp. I used my glitter pen on all the flower dots and scallop punch dots and added the ribbon and button.


Thanks for looking!!
Maria
