I love making cards but I’m sure this must be the hardest kind to make especially when you are thinking about the person who has passed away and their family. So I decided to try to make one now.
Stamps used (Hero Arts):- Happy Wishes & Antique Brocade.
For the background I embossed the Antique Brocade stamp in black. I printed off the verse and stamped beside it using the Happy Wishes stamp. To finish I just added some green gems and butterflies. It's hard to tell from the photo but all the panels and butterflies are raised with foam pads.
I used the colour combination from the Play Date Cafe Challenge #40 and am also submitting the card into the Card Style Classy and Elegant Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.
