Just Us Girls #461 - Word Week
It's Word Week at Just Us Girls and the word Nancy has chosen is 'Sympathy'.
I was watching some video tutorials that were in my inbox when I got an idea for my card. By combining one from Therese Calvird and one from Carissa Wiley I made this.
The Penny Black image was stamped in Antique Linen Oxide on Gina K ivory paper. The die from Winnie and Walter was cut from some brown in my stash and gold foil applied to the bottom. Another brown piece was heat embossed with the sentiment from Papertrey Ink. Here's a close-up of the gold foil.
Beautiful sympathy card - love the layout and the gold is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful Bobby!I love that stamp and how you coloured it.The sentinent really finishes it off so nicely too ;) hugs Viv xx

So pretty. Love the sentiment over the solid background
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful, Bobby ... the neutrals are so serene and calming ... and are so elegant with the gold on the dipped sentiment! Catching up ... have enjoyed all your recent cards as I've been meandering ... though haven't had chance to leave comments. Know you'll understand that, my friend! Big hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteThis is pure perfection! I love the soft, leafy background and that die cut sentiment looks amazing with the partial foil. Beautiful and soothing.
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous example of a monochromatic card Bobby, I never would have thought using those colours could have such a stunning result! A truly beautiful sympathy card. Hugs, Gwendolyn
