A sympathy card today. I usually to prefer to use the sentiment 'Thinking of You'.
I stamped the Lavinia 'Lilium ' stamp with Versafine Clair 'Morning Mist'. The sentiment is a stamp from the Happy Little Stampers 'Dandelion Wishes' set, stamped with the same stamp pad. I added some subtle stencilling for a background using a Lavinia 'Feather Leaf' and pink Distress Ink. I used the same ink to paint the image. I mounted the image on a grey mat.
I am joining in the following challenges:

This design is just right for a sympathy card and stamping with grey gives a softer feel where black can sometimes be just a touch too harsh
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful Liz, the soft stencilled background frames the beautiful Lilium stamp perfectly. xx

ReplyDeleteYour sympathy card is truly heartfelt and beautifully crafted. The soft colors and subtle stenciling create a gentle backdrop for the Lavinia 'Lilium' stamp, which is painted delicately with pink Distress Ink. The sentiment from the Happy Little Stampers set adds a comforting touch. It's a thoughtful design that conveys warmth and empathy perfectly.
