Sympathy Card

 Today I have made a card that nobody likes to make. Thank goodness I don't need one at the moment therefore making it a little easier to make but still sad as it will have a use in some point in time.

Linen cardstock from either amazon. hobbycraft or Craftstash UK there is a Craftstash USA

Rectangle stitched dies and used to embossed an outer frame using silicone rubber mat and embossing plate in bigshot

I stamped a flower background stamp and embossed using gold glitter embossing powder on white linen card, I then diecut the poppies, large and small, from the embossed card. The small ones are separate I just arranged them the same as the large. I am unsure of the makes, I think the large one could be memory box and the small ones were sent to me as a gift ??? Feel free to let me know of the origin of the poppies.

I scored the top layer as usual using my scoreboard and score tool

The sentiment I composed on laptop and printed it out

The second pic I tried to show how shiny the embossing is

I do hope you like it and thank you for visiting me

Peace love and joy

 Today I fancied making a card that symbolizes peace due to these terrible atrocities gong on in this world.  Saddens me terribly.  

I put this together using  

Linen cardstock 300gsm

3 x images from Hungryjpeg (smoke flowers) combined with 2 x images of doves from pngwing manipulated in photo editing program and printed twice

I diecut the oval where I wanted the aperture, The outer oval embossed using a larger size die

I lined up the die cut layer over the base image and used double sided foam tape to secure it -

VOILA all done except what to do with the card though I suppose it could be used for Christmas????? who knows!

The second pic shows close up of the doves soooooo cute
