Beautiful Sympathy Cards...

I'm back posting on my blog...  Unfortunately I recently lost both my parents within a week of each other.  As you can imagine, it's been a difficult time.  Receiving these beautiful sympathy cards from my Stampin' Up! friends made me smile...

Bloomin Hearts Thinlits Cards

These cards were made easy with the Stampin' Up! Bloomin Hearts Thinlits Die.  For the first card, I used daubers and sponged the heart thinlit with Pool Party and Pear Pizzazz.  I kept a  sheet of white cardstock underneath so when I sponged, it created a reverse image on the paper.

Decorated the cards with Wisteria Wonder, So Saffron, and Pool Party flowers.

Stampin' Blends for a Beautiful Day Thinking of You Card

I used Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to stamp the flower from Beautiful Day stamp set and then used Rich Razzleberry, Calypso Coral and Old Olive Stampin' Blends.  The "Always Thinking of You" greeting is stamped in Rich Razzleberry.

For the DSP background, I cut a piece of Painted with Love DSP measuring 4" x 4" and then cut on the diagonal.
