As I mentioned in a recent post, it seems as if I shall be making a few sympathy cards over the next few weeks. Several people we know are losing loved ones or are about to lose one. This card has been made for a club member of my hubby’s photo group as she lost her husband on Saturday after a long illness.
At Krafty Chicks it is an all occasion challenge at the moment so I shall add it there if I can get this post done in time.
I started with inking a small scrap piece of white CS and then die cutting the dragonfly from this piece. Die is from PaperRose. I cut a second one in black so I could offset the inked top one slightly for more definition. I also sprayed the inked piece with some sparkle. Using a Tim Holtz/Sizzix die set I cut the pattern into some blue CS and added it to the gray card front. I added some sparkle using a Sakura pen on the diamond shapes within the pattern. My sentiment is from GKD and once this was stamped and dry I glued the dragonfly leaving the wings free.
Thanks for spending time with me, and any comments you may leave are much appreciated.
