Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing a beautiful Sympathy card made with the new release of
Refresh the Soul Digital Stamp Set
The Lily image is so beautiful and I wanted to feature it on my card today. Let me show you how I made my card! I first composed my images in my computer. I used the same image twice - once as it is and then I made it smaller and flipped it horizontally and put the 2 together.
I cut around the images loosely, as I was going to fussy cut the lily image and die cut the sentiment. I used Copic markers to color my image.
I really wanted to keep my colors soft. I used 3 or 4-way blends on both the pink flowers and the green leaves and stems.
After the coloring was finished I fussy cut the image. Copic colors used were: RV000, R81, R83, R85, YG111, YG63, YG67. I next moved on to prepare my base. I used a standard white A2 size top folding card base. Using a scalloped rectangle die, I die cut a light gray panel. Next I cut a white stitched rectangle panel and stenciled it with light gray ink.
I adhered the gray die cut panel flat to the card base. I backed the stenciled panel with double-sided adhesive backed foam and centered it on the gray panel.
Next I die cut my sentiment with a stitched rectangle die. When I placed it on my panel it was a bit too long, so I cut the left side off and adhered it along the stitch line of the stenciled panel. I popped up my lily image with left overs of foam. As a final embellishment, I used iridescent confetti in a few places. I also used a Pentel Sparkle Pop pen in black - it goes on black but dries a deep pink which matched perfectly! And that finished my card!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope I've inspired you to make something beautiful! You can find this digital stamp set and other from this release at
