With Sympathy card


A new sympathy card for you today. I love this Basic Grey 6x6 pad of paper for making cards. It's got a lot of variety and goes well with the Bazzill cardstock. The die cuts are by Spellbinders, stamp by Fiskars, ink for the sentiment by Memento inks and distressing ink around the edge of the card and on the die cut by Ranger Industries. The fabric brad is also by Basic Grey.

Thanks for looking.


Thank you card


I'm here to share a thank you card today with fun patterned papers by Basic Grey. I covered the 4x5.5 card base with the darker patterned paper as my base. I had left over pieces of paper from the same pad and made this middle panel by layering them on top of each other. Before I adhered it to my base I wrapped organza ribbon around it and made a bow. After assembling my card I wasn't really sure what else to do with it. It sat for a day or so until I came across this journal box by Jillibean  Soup. I felt the greens matched perfectly so I stamped my sentiment on it by Hero Arts using ink by Stampin Up. I tucked the journal box under my panel of patterned paper  and there we go. It's very clean and simple but sometimes it looks better that way.
Thanks for looking.
