Stampin’ Up! Love & Sympathy Card

Unfortunately, I needed to send a sympathy card this past week to a sweet friend that I met through Stampin’ Up! who lost her Mother-In-Law (also a sweet lady that I met through Stampin’ Up!).  I used the Love & Sympathy stamp set to create a card for her in shades of purple.

Love & Sympathy - Stamp With Amy K

The colors for my card were inspired by the Sunday Stamps SSC89 color challenge.

I started by inking up a Brayer with Wisteria Wonder ink and rolling it on the inside of the Beautifully Baroque Embossing Folder.  I carefully placed a panel of Very Vanilla card stock inside the folder and ran it through the Big Shot.

Love & Sympathy 2 - Stamp With Amy K

I adhered the embossed panel to a panel of Perfect Plum card stock with SNAIL.  I wrapped two strands of Wisteria Wonder 1/2″ Seam Binding Ribbon around the panel, adhering them with SNAIL.  Then I adhered the layered panel to a Wisteria Wonder card base with SNAIL.

Love & Sympathy 3 - Stamp With Amy K

I colored the flower image from the Love & Sympathy stamp set with my Wisteria Wonder and Pear Pizzazz Stampin’ Write Markers and stamped it on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock.  Then I stamped the sentiment in Perfect Plum ink (using my Stamp-a-ma-jig to help with placement) over the flower image.  I cut the stamped panel with an Ovals Collection Framelits Die, then adhered it to a Perfect Plum oval that I’d cut with the next size up Ovals Collection Framelits die.

Love & Sympathy 1 - Stamp With Amy K

I adhered the layered ovals to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals, then tied a double bow from Wisteria Wonder Ribbon and adhered it with a Glue Dot to finish the card front.

Love & Sympathy 4 - Stamp With Amy K

I colored the flower image again in Wisteria Wonder and Pear Pizzazz inks, stamped it off once on scrap paper, then stamped it on a Very Vanilla panel.  I stamped the sentiment from the Love & Sympathy stamp set in Perfect Plum over the flower image on the inside of the card.

  7. What an elegant and comforting card you have created! I love the colored dry embossing panel and the delicate flowers are pretty too. The purple seam binding is just the right touch to finish this beauty! Thanks for playing along with us at Sunday Stamps this week–please join us again soon.
    🙂 Marie
