Sun Print Sympathy

What a great way to kick off the year!  Make My Monday #191 would like us to show off something new!
I have just the thing, too, lol!  I was looking for an excuse to ink up my pretty Something Fancy set, which you can also get bundled a gorgeous array of dies!  At last, new and perfect sentiment tag shapes, with plenty of options for dressing up or down!  I kept things simple for a quick sympathy card, which I think looks calm and elegant with this sheet from the Sun Prints DSP pack.  I still had some Faux Suede Trim in Early Espresso, so I did my ink and other details in that, and finished with some Brushed Metallic Dots.  I know I'll be using these new dies a lot!

Oo, this will be fun - Cardz 4 Guyz #311 wants to see something starting with "O!"
I had a couple ideas when I started (oo, how about "oars," lol) but I wanted to do a browse first.  When I spotted the gorgeous Olive Branch, I knew that was the one!  I have so NOT been using this set enough!  For today's card, I went with the larger branch - I've only used the small one so far.  I inked up with markers, and had to do a lot of "huffing" to make sure it was still juicy, lol.  My green came out fainter then I expected, but I still like it!  A simple sympathy to add to my stash...

I've missed a few challenges here lately, but not this round!  Addicted to CAS #232 has a "sympathy" code word - good prompt!
I knew right away I wanted to bring in our gorgeous Splendid Thoughts set for this one, but I wanted to try something different for the sentiment.  I do occasionally get scripture stamps from other companies (Shhhhh!) and I have a new one to share today!  This perfect quote from Matthew 5:4 is from Stamp Simply's Blessings/Beatitudes 1 set - such a powerful collection.  It makes for a lovely sympathy card, I think.

Oo, we have such a lovely banner sketch for you this week at Hand Stamped Sentiments #389!
I knew right away I wanted to break out my new patterned DSP - I have been waiting so long for our new stacks, and I love every single pattern!  I couldn't resist sneaking in a new In Color, too, so today's combo is a mix of Parakeet Party, Calypso Coral and Mango Melody - love it!  This also gave me a chance to try out my new Sending Smiles set - I've been a little anti-flower for the past few catties, but this one has several that are calling to me for whatever reason.  Such cute stems today!
I can't wait to see YOUR projects with our fun sketch - meet you there!

Daffodil Sympathy

We're taking things on a slant this week at As You See It #266!  Come join the fun!
Today I wanted to try out our fancy new dies that go with the amazing Daffodil Daydream bundle - so pretty!  Once again I'm trying to tame them a bit before going all out, lol, and our pretty sketch seemed like the perfect chance to show off a layered flower over some of the SAB paper that also coordinates with the set.  I added in this sympathy sentiment from Inspired Thoughts as well, for a family on our street that has lost a beloved grandmother.  She loved flowers!  I hope this little note can let them know we're thinking of them...
I can't wait to see YOUR projects for our sketch - meet you at the challenge!

What a super fun challenge at this week's Cardz 4 Guyz #280 - add some metal!  Time to go mining, lol.
Look at that, I have one last Dog Bone trinket, perfect!  Sadly, it's perfect because our neighbors had to let their sweet baby go last weekend, after a long, glorious and joyous life - we'll all miss her!  Thought I'd send over a nice card to let them know we're still thinking of them.  I'll remember the good times forever!

This month Stamping Pals #16 has a great challenge for us - sympathy cards.  It's always hard to have to have one, but so good to send our caring thoughts to those who need them.
I decided to turn today to my gorgeous Inspired Thoughts set - the one with the new tree dies that are just incredible!  Today, I scooted them over to the left just a bit, to make room for the sympathy sentiment.  I did put the accompanying sentiment on the inside as well, where this post title comes from...  I kept it simple with these two soft colors, and added a touch of the new Open Weave Ribbon, with a few pearls - just little points of light, hopefully!

OK, here we go!  Another one-layer card this week at Less Is More #441 - this time featuring "diamonds!"  Which way to go?
Well, I couldn't help it - I love this design in my Pattern Party Masks so much, and I hardly ever use it!  These little diamonds remind of twinkles, somehow, but I thought they'd make a sweet background for this pretty sympathy sentiment in Inspired Thoughts.  I slipped a little diecut poppy in Blackberry Bliss behind it, too - simple, but dramatic, I think!

Such a fun combo this week at In{k}spire Me #445 - I LOVE those colors together!
I thought at first I was only going to do the colors - I had a grand idea percolating in my mind about it!  But then, I just couldn't stop looking at the sketch, too - and I couldn't figure out how to work in the stamp set I planned, argh!  So I scrapped the percolating plan, and went with this lovely array of DSP instead, so I could tackle both sides of the challenge!  It's funny how the proportions JUST worked out for my sentiment, too, what a happy accident!

We're adding all the trimmings at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #495!
I really was gonna try and get all the frills in there, but alas, it just wouldn't take, lol.  I even still have this trim punch!  Anyway, the basic layout is classic, so I stuck to that!  I still have a bit of this gorgeous Mint Macaron sheet from the Ornate Garden DSP pack, and I thought a nice floral arrangement from Bloom & Grow could be very comforting, so here we are.  I've actually pulled out the Vanilla cardstock, too - a big day!  For my large blooms, I added an undercoat of So Saffron to the Rococo Rose, I love the color effect!
I can't wait to see your projects for this one - it's a doozy!  See you at the challenge!
