Sympathy card

Sadly my friends mum passed away a few weeks ago and so I made her a card to let her know she is in my thoughts at this difficult time.

I always think a clean and simple card works best for sympathy cards so that’s what I did!

I used an Altenew stamp, used a light ink to stamp it and then added shimmer watercolour paints in light colours. Then I re stamped it using versamark and gold embossing powder.

Sorry the photos are a little darker than normal but this is what happens when it’s night time making and photographing the card.

I added a mat layer of Kraft and then embossed the thinking of you sentiment in gold and added that to a layer of Kraft too.

The shimmer on the image is beautiful.

Inside the card, and on the edge of the envelope I stamped again but using a light brown ink.

Hope that this brought my friend a little comfort and made her smile when she opened it.

Later edit … photo in the light!

Happy crafting!
