Elegant Floral Sympathy Card Idea

Create a soft and meaningful sympathy card using the Framed All Around Stamp Set, Stampin’ Blends, vellum, and elegant layered details.

Supplies Needed
  

  • Basic White Cardstock: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" (scored at 4-1/4")
  • Splash of Sparkles Specialty Paper: 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" (Bubble Bath)
  • Basic White Cardstock: 3-3/4" x 5"
  • Vellum Specialty Paper: 3" x 5" (for die-cutting)
  • Basic White Cardstock: 2-3/4" x 4-1/2" (for die-cutting)

Instructions
 

  • Fold the Basic White cardstock in half to create your base card. Decorate the inside as desired.
  • Adhere the Splash of Sparkles Specialty Paper to the front of the card.
  • Using the 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Basic White cardstock, stamp the floral image in the lower right corner using Old Olive ink. Repeat in the remaining 3 corners.
  • Color in the flower using the Bubble Bath Stampin' Blends for the flowers, and the Dark Soft Sea Foam Blend for the leaves. Adhere to the center of the card.
  • Run the Vellum through the Cut & Emboss Machine using the 2-5/8" x 4-3/4" Nested Essentials Die. Adhere to the center of the card using adhesive only in the center of the Vellum (where it will be covered by the sentiment die.)
  • Stamp the sentiment into the center of the 2-3/4" x 4-1/2" piece of Basic White cardstock using Black ink. Run the cardstock through the Cut & Emboss Machine and die-cut using the 3-1/8" x 4-1/4" Nested Essentials Die. Adhere to the center of the Vellum paper.
  • To finish, add 2 Rhinestones in the upper left and lower right corners, as shown in the sample.

Notes

Worker Bee  (for Confident Cardmakers)
Worker Bee projects are designed for the crafter who has a bit more time and enjoys creating a handmade card that features a technique or tool. In many cases, a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine is required for die-cutting and/or embossing.
