I guess you would say that these cards are not your traditional sympathy cards but what can you really say when a husband loses a wife at such a young age? One that loves fishing and the other with a new found appreciation for golf. May you rest in peace Teresa and Libby.
Last week was my niece's 16th Birthday and I thought this double diamond fold card from Lisa Curcio at Lisa's Stamp Studio would be really cool and unique. I also made an accompanying St. Patrick's Day card using the same papers and stamps. The best thing about Lisa's card is that it fits in a standard A2 envelope and doesn't require extra postage.
This is one of the first stamps I ever bought from SU. For these cards I stamped the image on watercolor paper with archival ink and then used a mixture of watercolors and misting sprays to get the desired effect. No matching die here, just a lot of fussy cutting.
It's been a while since I posted but I wanted to share this layout that I did for the The Scrap Gals. If you haven't listened to their podcast on pod.fan I would highly encourage you to do so. It's not free but totally worth it. This particular page was done in honor of my sister-in-law that passed away from cancer on March 3rd. Unfortunately we've had two other close family deaths occur in 2021 and I hope to honor those women as well.
