Sympathy fun fold card

This is the third sympathy card I made recently for some friends.

The funfold is a die from Tattered Lace

and I have decorated it with Forever Fern stamps and dies

and an added daisy from my daisy punch.

I used soft tones of lilac and greens and added some pearls.

Sympathy card 2

I'm sharing another one of the sympathy cards I made recently for a friend.

I went with a centre step card.

The flowers, foliage and butterflies came from various sets

from my stash and the papers are from a retired pack.

I followed the design inside too.

Thinking of you...

Happy Monday.

I had a few sympathy cards to make for a few special friends

who recently lost their Mum/Granny.

This is one of them.

I used a tattered lace die for the card shape. I think it's called a

tri fold shutter.

The papers are from Stampin' Up! and the flowers and foliage are from

a mix of retired products. One of them is my favourite all time set called

Forever Fern.

This is a side view.

I layered up the butterfly die from  a set called Brilliant Wings dies.

The sentiment is from a stamp set called Hope you Know.

Happy Monday!

Today I am sharing my midway card for the challenge over at

STAMPING SENSATIONS

where the theme is anything stamped option CAS.

We have a lovely prize up for grabs so please come

and join us if you can.

For my card I have used Forever Fern  (reduced at the minute) and old olive ink

and blends. I stamped some little splashes around the edges of the leaves.

I then hand embossed a line around the edge of the card using my scoreboard for

some definition and finished with a stamped sentiment.

Very quick and easy and definitely CAS!

With our wee Squirt gone we now have a rat in the garden shed.

It was drawn by a bag of dog food we forgot to get rid of

and had a field day!!

Fingers crossed he is gone now, one way or another!!!

I fancied trying my hand at a wreath of summer flowers.

So I set about stamping, colouring and shaping

until I was happy.

I drew a circle in pencil and stamped some background

Shutter Fold Card

Second post today!!

This is my midway project for Stamping Sensations

where the challenge is

anything goes stamping (option add some diecuts)

Just remember to STAMP, STAMP, STAMP!

We are sponsored by Oakwood Archer  this month

and they will be sending our lucky winner a £25 prize package of crafting goodies.

I decided to go with a fun fold card and lots of stamped

and die cut foilage!

The card itself uses a shutter fold die from Tattered Lace.

The papers are a retired Stampin' Up! set, card is rich razzleberry and

I have used Forever Fern stamps and Forever Flourishing dies

in Rich Razzleberry and Evening Evergreen colours.

The daisy is from Daisy Lane and has been stamped,

punched, layered and finished with a pearl.
