With Deepest Sympathy

 

This card is a fun fold card and can be used for a variety of occasions and you can change the card's orientation around depending on what you chose to stamp on the card front. When creating this card, be sure to keep in mind the orientation of your card and the design on your Designer Series Paper before cutting and adhering.   

Sadly, many of my customers have been asking for sympathy cards so I opted to turn this into one. For those of you reading this post, if you have lost someone my heart goes out to you.  Loss is always difficult. 


With Deepest Sympathy

Idea from Kathy Belcher


 

DIRECTIONS:

     1.     Score the 8 ½” x 11” piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock at 4 ¼” on short side and at 5 ½” on the long side.

     2.    Cut the cardstock diagonally. (This will give you two card bases.)

     3.    Fold the card base on the score lines.

     4.    Cut the 4” x 5 ¼” piece of coordinating color cardstock (Granny Apple Green) in half diagonally.

     5.     Cut a 3 ¾” x 5” of Designer Series Paper in half diagonally. (Paying attention to the direction of the pattern of your paper.) Adhere these pieces to the cardstock from step 4.

     6.    Adhere this to your card front.

     7.    Cut out the larger stitched rectangle die in Blackberry Bliss and the smaller one on the smaller rectangle of Very Vanilla.

     8.    Stamp your sentiment and image on the Very Vanilla.  Deciding the orientation for your card.  Adhere this to the larger rectangle.

     9.    Add Dimensionals to half of the rectangle. (This will depend on the orientation of your card.) Embellish with dots (you need to use the Stampin’ Blend marker to color it green)

     10.  ON your large rectangle of Very Vanilla stamp any additional image or sentiment and adhere this to the inside of your card.

     11.   Optional: Stamp envelope to coordinate
