I bought this KaiserCraft Sheet Music embossing folder a few months ago on a trip to a local craft store and have not used it as much as I'd like to. I thought it might make a pretty background for a sympathy card so that's what I'm sharing today
I placed the embossed panel on a Daffodil Delight card stock base, and used a snippet of green card to die-cut the large swirl with a Cheery Lynn die. The tiny flowers were done with a retired SU! mini punch and some Daffodil Delight matching polka dot dsp. I placed a drop of Black Nuvo drops in the center of each bloom, and used a Lil Inker stitched die to cut the sentiment panel which was heat-embossed with white embossing powder along with a SU! teeny tiny wishes greeting.
I'll enter this into the following challenges:
Little Red Wagon #557 - embossing
A Place to Start July 2020 challenge - flowers
Snippets Playground Challenge #382 - use snippets
Thanks for stopping by and do have yourself a wonderful day!

The embossing is really detailed and I like the idea to incorporate it for a sympathy card because music can hold so many memories and I think flowers are a great way to remember a loved one. Nicely designed card for a difficult time x
ReplyDeleteIt certainly does make for a beautiful background on a sympathy card Carol! I love the embossing folder, I love the flourish-always love this when you use it. The colors are so pretty and soft. We hate making them, but have need for them unfortunately. Hugs, Brenda

ReplyDeleteCarol, you're certainly right about that embossing folder and I just love the swirling floral vine to go over top of it as well! It's very classy and elegant looking! Thanks for the great inspiration my friend! HUGS
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sympathy card, Carol! Love that musical background and your swirl flourish with the little flowers! This is sure to bring comfort to someone after a loss. TFS and have a wonderful day! Hugs~
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful sympathy card Carol. Love the delicate leaves and flowers - and the embossed background is perfect for the card. I wonder what the actual tune is? Let's hope it's not a rousing rendition of 'On the good ship Lollipop' or similar. Sorry, once that thought popped into my head i had to mention it.
