With love and sympathy

#588-2019-01
I made this card 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 inches. I chose a sympathy theme because of my father passing away last Friday, January 11th.
I used a bigz top note die cut, which I cut in half after running the top note through my bigkick machine.
The leaf pattern is a framelit die that I found and purchased on Amazon. I added the butterfly, along with the pearls.
The sentiment is from Hero Arts So sorry stamp and cut set.

Sorry for your loss

***Cardstock used :
Off white, turquoise blue, damask printed design, green.

***Other materials used :
Photo frame embossing folder, pink pearls, turquoise butterflies, So sorry stamp & cut stamp set, brick red versa magic chalk ink, black ink, leaf die cut framelit.

I don't remember what the name of the leaf framelit is. The framelit is my sisters, who was nice enough to let me borrow it for my card. The pearls and butterflies I bought at our local dollar store. I used black ink for the sentiment, which is from my So sorry stamp & cut stamp set. I sponged on the brick red chalk ink onto the photo frame after using my embossing folder.
Thank you so much in advance for any comments you may have about my card. I enjoyed making it...

Supplies used are :

I used a white blank card with a red cardstock from my Shimmer Matstack. The main background I used my cherry blossom embossing folder on white cardstock.

The small red and white strip is paper from my Snap Color Vibe paper pack from Simple Stories.

I used red paper with my scalloped squares framelits with a white background behind the red roses and the sentiment is from my All Year Greetings clear stamp set. I used Garden Green Stampin' Up Ink. 

Then I added some sequins on the cherry blossom flowers. I used my photo editing software to add the green border to my card after I scanned it and saved it to my computer. 

This card is the 507th card I have made since 2011 when I first started making cards. You can also find this card posted in this weeks http://www.freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com card challenge. 

I hope you have enjoyed my card as well as your visit to my blog. Thanks for stopping by.

Supplies used are : Red card stock, Pearl White card stock, Dots and Stripes paper pack (Brown zig zag), Simple Stories paper pack (Red diagonal stripes), Butterfly punch, Pearl beads, Screen Hunter Stamp Set (Flowers and Leaves), Scalloped Border punch. The sentiment is from the "Just Because" sentiments. I also used a Stampin' Up paper piercing tool to put holes around the border of the pearl white background as well as double-sided permanent adhesives to attach the butterflies, flowers, leaves, and sentiment. I also used a small paint brush and Stampin' Up ink (Rose Red, Ruby Red, and green) to brush the color onto the flowers and leaves, which I cut out by hand. I am using this card in this weeks Freshly Made Sketches challenge #146 located at :                   http://www.freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com.
