Stampin' Up! Grassy Grove Sympathy Card

Good Tuesday morning, peeps. My card today is a CASE of my upline, Amy Koenders. She has a pdf file and video for instructions so I won't be going into that in this post. 

For my card I used a sentiment from the Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set and the Double Oval Punch.


The DSP for the background is from the New Horizons 6 x 6 pack. I ran a panel of Blackberry Bliss through my embossing machine with the Tasteful Textures 3D EF and adhered it to the card front.

I used the Grassy Grove Bundle for my silhouettes in the above photo and the inside sentiment and images shown in the next photo. I sponged the edges with Blackberry Bliss ink.

Since this is the first time I have used the Grassy Grove Bundle, I'm entering my card at NBUS #35 and Double Trouble #102. I'm playing with Thing 1 and Thing 2.

THING 1: Trouble Maker says, "It's time again to grab your bone folder and other crafty stuff and create something new. We think this is easier than folding a fitted sheet! It's time to use the stuff you have in your stash (new and/or old).
  THING 2:  Double Dare 

says, "I dare you to multiply the fun by linking your project with any previous partner(s) listed below. You will qualify for extra chances in our Random Draw."

For Thing 2 I have chosen to play with Critter Crazy Challenge #59 - Anything Goes with a Featured Critter (mine are momma and baby deer). 


Thank you for stopping by today and happy February 1st!

  6. This is gorgeous, it is hard to believe that is designer paper versus a hand made background. Wow!
