April Sentimental Challenge; With Sympathy

 

Hello!

Welcome to my little crafting place! 

Here's where I share the things I've been making, and sometimes other bits of waffle!

Today is Daring Cardmakers day and it's the first Friday of the monthso time for a Monthly Sentimental Challenge

The theme for April is
With Sympathy
Perhaps the hardest of all the cards we make, its often difficult to express how much we care for someone experiencing so much pain and sorrow.
But Sympathy and Condolence cards mean so much to those who grieve
These challenges help us grow our stock of cards for those times we need something special and thoughtful.

I decided on a simple Navy, Pale Pink and White colour paletter with a little silver to add n extra 'lift'

The sentiment was created on the pc.  Using my graphics program (Paint Shop Pro) I make a set of different sentiments in different fonts on one 'background  save it then I can resize it to print when needed.  I can also change the colours, or maybe blank out one part to add a less used or one-off sentiment in its place - like on the blue version shown among the variants below

 

 I used 

Cameo Frames Etched Dies

Sealed Blooms Etched Dies

Sealed Wildflowers Etched Dies

Silver thread, Blue gem

 pc made printed sentiment
