AYSI 157 & TGIFC 123 - A Sympathy Card

Hello and welcome back! Today's card is for the sketch challenge at As You See It and the color challenge at TGIFC.


And here is today's card.



For this card, I went with a clean and simple look. I first tried stamping the background flourish with Peekaboo Peach but it was a bit too garish, and when I tried stamping off, it was too faint. I think the Soft Sky looks much better. I used the Peekaboo Peach for the die cut flower, layering two of them together. Once again, I pulled out my Stitched Shapes Framelits. They sure get a lot of use!

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

  2. Yes, the Soft Sky is a great choice for the background. It's funny how sometimes our ideas for a card changes with a bit of trial and error! I like your layered circle as it shows off that glorious bloom beautifully. Thanks for joining us at As You See It.

  3. This is a lovely design, Cindi! You've managed to take a detailed design and make it CAS at the same time. I love the contrasts in the way you've used the Early Espresso! Thanks for joining us at As You See It Challenge.
