Sympathy Card by Marybeth Lopez

Hello! Marybeth here today with a feminine sympathy card, using :Poppystamps clear stamps and dies. 

I tried not to make it too busy  but wanted to add more than just the background  . 

I stamped the background with: Flower Garden and used : Tim Holtz distressed oxide inks. First I stamped lightly with the ink pad then blended the inks so it would not have any harsh lines.

I kept doing it till I was happy with the results. I am using the MISTI Stamping tool.

The sentiment comes with the background  stamp set: Flower Garden, all linked below.

I die cute the Garden Poppy Sidekick Frame a few times so I would have a few flowers to put around the :Whittle Hearts.

I randomly cut them apart then sanded with a sanding block to smooth the edges, then tucked them around the heart.

Thank you so much for the visit today, I hope you get some crafty time today or this week.

The softness of your card lovingly supports its sentiment. I also appreciate your altering of the die to create your embellishments.
