With Deepest Sympathy

 Hello TGF friends! 

I hope you are all enjoying this hot summer!  I'm on the The Greeting Farm blog today sharing a sympathy card using the beautiful Deepest Sympathy stamp set. The sentiments are wonderful to create any heartfelt card.  



I started by cutting a piece of patterned paper for the main background.  I used a stitched border die.  

I then cut white and cream cardstock with coordinating arch dies.  I ink blended the white one with Distress Ink Oxides, sprayed some water and a blue Mica Distress Oxides spray, to create a sky.  




I heat embossed the sentiment in gold embossing powder.  All images were colored with Copic markers and die cut.  They were added to the background with foam adhesive and to finish I added some glitter on the images.  



Thanks for stopping by!! 

XOXO

Our first set called FAIRY BDAY ANYA features a gorgeous fairy ready to wish your recipient a Fairy Happy Birthday. Next, we showcased IMPECKABLE with adorable birds, a garden box with flowers, and 3 sentiments. Lastly, we introduced SCHOOL COUPLE because August is right around the corner and kids are headed back to school.



For my card I picked Anya from School Couple set and colored her with Copic markers and die cut with my Scan & Cut.  I used a splatter stencil to create the background on craft cardstock.  I used Distress Ink Oxides.  I then die cut the note pad page and lightly ink blended the edges and stamped the sentiment in black.  I added all the images with foam adhesive and added enamel dots in the corners.

Happy Fourth of July!

 Happy 4th of July TGF friends!! 

I hope you are all having a great day! I'm on the TGF blog sharing a 4th of July card!  I used  Miss Anya from the adorable hot and sunny set  I think she is perfect, an all american girl sipping on her coke and enjoying the fireworks.  



I created the background by ink blending Distress Oxides Mica Sprays until I was happy with the blend.  

I used a firework stencil and applied distress paste and while wet I added glitter.  The sentiment was heat embossed in white.  The Happy 4th sentiment is from TGF 4th of July digital set  . I printed it and die cut with a circle die and matted it with a blue circle and a red scalloped circle.  



The image was colored with Copic markers and die cut with my Scan & Cut.  All images were added to the background with foam adhesive.

I added a banner at the bottom with some patterened paper and finished with some enamel dots. 




Thanks for stopping by! 

Happy 4th!!
