Sympathy Card Kit Part 3


Today I made 4 more cards from the Sympathy set Mom gave me.  It looks like there will be a "part 4" of this before I'm done.

For this first card, I used a die to punch a hole through to see the greeting on the inside.  You can't read it in the picture but it says, "In Loving Memory".  I added ribbon from my stash & some punched dark green circles.

Inside:

The pink mat was die cut from the hidden part of the mat on the card front (cut with Spellbinders Decorative Labels Eight).  I inked the edges of the sentiment and added a couple of die cuts. (not sure where I got the dies - possibly Momenta)

Card #2:

Here I added card stock & ribbon from my stash.  Sentiment is matted on a piece that was die cut, embossed & stenciled using Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Rectangles die & silver ink.  A few Jewel Dazzles completes the card front.

Inside:

Here I've just added more card stock & Jewel Dazzles to the sentiment from the set.

Card #3:

This time I used silver poster board to frame and mat the elements of the card front.  The frame was cut using Spellbinders Fleur De Lis Rectangles die - and the center was used on the inside of the card. The sentiment says "Gone But Not Forgotten".

Inside: 

Card #4:
For this card I embossed the card front using Cuttlebug's Rosa embossing folder by Anna Griffin.  Then I just added the focal from the set, a sentiment from HD Essential book (says "Thinking of You: Our Hearts, Our Prayers, Our Love are with you").  A loosely tied bow completes this card front.

Inside:

For the inside, I simply paired a sentiment from the set (matted on a scrap of paper from the set) with a border from pink card stock & a strip of paper cut from one of the other focals from the set.
