Sympathy Card



I've always loved this SU! embossing folder because it leaves enough room for a sentiment on the lower portion. I punched some flowers with white using a Carl sakura punch and affixed them on top of the embossed flowers in the design. I used a small starburst punch to make the flower centers from some gold-embossed snippets of white card stock. The butterflies were done with a SU! embosslit butterfly die and cut from the same gold-embossed snippets as the flower centers. The sentiment is by Hero Arts and was heat embossed with gold ep.

I'm sharing this with Pixie's Snippets Playground #347 where all you have to do is use snippets.

Thanks for stopping by and I wish you a wonderful Tuesday!

What a nice idea for a sympathy card. I just posted one today too. I will keep this idea in mind. I don’t have that embossing folder, but maybe I could use a stamp.
