Dies R Us: With Sympathy

Oct 8, 2020

With Sympathy

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman back today sharing a sympathy card.

I began by stamping the image, then coloring it with Copic Markers. As the circle die would have cut off part of my image, I fussy cut around the wing, then slipped the die under it so it would cut the circle and leave the wing intact.

While still in the die, I inked around the image with Distress Oxide in Squeeze Lemonade.

Using the Botanica Frame from Poppy Stamps, I die cut Rinea Foiled Paper for my background.

Next, I adhered the die cut panel to a blue card. Don't you love the contrast?

After inking the edges of the image with Distress Oxide Ink in Spice Marmalade, it was placed on the card with foam adhesives for dimension.

The phrase was stamped on a scrap of white cardstock and matted with a scrap of blue cardstock, then added to the bottom edge of the image using the Best Glue Ever.
