Paper Crafting Blog Hop March 2024 - Sympathy/Thinking of You!

 

Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop for March 2024 - featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe including the USA, United Kingdom and Australia. We have a wide array of projects and design styles to share with you this month - and every one of them is spotlighting Sympathy and Thinking of You projects.

~*~*~*~*~

So for my post I am using an amazing Bundle from out Spring Mini Catalog that I just love - and the deep rich colors make it perfect for masculine cards and sympathy cards. That is the Notes of Nature Bundle.


#162640 Notes of Nature Bundle - $46.75

I really don't love doing Sympathy cards, but I need them, and like to have them done already when I need to send. I like them to be beautiful, but subtle, and so many I make have flowers - but I need a few masculine ones. So that being said, here is my card -

I started with a base of Basic White CS 5 1/2 x 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  I added a layer of Pebbled Path CS 3 3/4" x 5"; a layer of Pecan Pie 3" x 4" and a layer of Nature's Sweetness Specialty DSP 3" x 4".

Sentiment is stamped and punched out with the Heartfelt Hexagon bundle.

I added some little foliage pieces that were diecut out of Pebbled Path and Pecan Pie using the Notes of Nature dies.

Final touches - a little bow from our Baker's Twine Essentials pack; and three gems from the 2023-25 In Color Dots pack.

It all came together perfectly and then I finished the envelope with the same simple stamped image - 


I hope you like it. Thank you so much for stopping by and I would love to hear your thoughts and comments!
