With Sympathy

Today's card is the first card we made at my Cards Stamp Camp this month.  Sympathy cards are always so hard to make when you need them - so I try to have a stash done ahead.  I really like the way this one turned out.  Of course I ended up smudging my Y - but I still think it's nice.  I might end up layering over it with a new stamped verse.

The card uses the flourish from Creative Elements and a verse from Loving Thoughts -

The colors are Very Vanilla and Early Espresso and the DSP is from the Neutrals Paper Stack.  I just love the way it all came together.  You could use some brighter, cheerier colors and a different verse, and this card could be used for MANY different occasions.    Stop back soon for Card #2.  ~Maureen

Feminine Birthday card!

Today I'm sharing my final card from our last Cards Stamp Camp - you may recognize it from this earlier post - http://crazystampinglady.blogspot.com/2013/08/club-hostess-gift.html.  It is the same card that I made a set of for my Club hostess.  I pinned it on Pinterest, and got so many repins that I was sure it was a hit.  So decided to make it again - just in Tangerine Tango this time.

It use the Creative Elements set from SU - and our two butterfly punches.  Simple and elegant - I love it.  Inside we added a "Happy Birthday" sentiment.   That's it!  ~Maureen
