I recently held a Brayer Class and decided to do a couple of Sympathy Cards. Unfortunately, I have needed a couple recently, and just didn't have any on hand. I certainly wasn't in the right frame of mind to make any either. So decided to put my class to good use and have the Ladies make a couple they could put away for just these sad occassions.
I have used the stamp set Pendant Park for this card. I have had this stamp set for a while and not used it. Combine Pendant Park and a Brayer and it makes for a relatively quick scenery card. Pendant Park also comes with a lovely border stamp and I used this as a highlight on the inside of the card.
The colours I chose to use for this card where simple: Always Artichoke and Marina Mist, with just a hint of Basic Black. I was careful not to make the colours too somber. I also chose to put the sentiment on the inside, not the outside. I wanted the artwork to speak for itself.
I "framed" the card very simply with just one photo corner punch. If you would like to know how I did this card, the turorial is available for purchase. Just visit my "Tutorials for Sale" page at the top of this blog for more details.
We must have ESP!! I love your brayering ad how you used that beautiful border stamp. If only we lived in the same country, maybe I could come for a brayer lesson LOL
