Today is not only Monday Makeover Madness, but it's the second sympathy card that I sold over the weekend. I made my card at Sue M.'s house last Thursday with our card group. Here is the card by Marisa in its original form...
and here is my card.
Mine was supposed to look like Marisa's (and Sue's) BUT, I had the sentiment stamped in the wrong spot so I couldn't use the scalloped edged die. Now that I'm looking at it, I could have re-cut another scallop and adhere the circle that I cut from a smaller circle die. Oh, well...but the scallops really make the card, don't you think? I do love the dotted swiss embossing folder (Darice).
Sue gave us a neat tip on how to thread the ribbon through the button. Use one of those dental floss threads that are needed for flossing a bridge! It worked perfectly.
The stamp set we used for the front is the retired Thoughts and Prayers. Colors used are Pear Pizzazz and Calypso Coral.
The inside sentiment is great as I love the font but I don't know who the manufacturer is.
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you have a marvelous last March Monday.
Lovely! I am just reminded that I need a sympathy card too. I love this set, it's a great one for these occasions!
ReplyDeleteThank you, LeAnne. I will never part with this set!
DeleteI love this card. I would like to buy the Praying for friends stamp.
