My Cardmaking Haven

Bloomin' with Beauty Sympathy Card 

Good afternoon,I am back with a Stampin'Up! card,I haven't made one of these in a while.The girls at the gym asked if I would make a sympathy card for them and this is what I came up with.I tend to use Stampin'Up! stamps for these sort of things,as I like the classy elegance of them.........which I think is perfect for these sort of cards.This card was inspired by Teneale Williams,she makes the most gorgeous Stampin'Up! cards,so if you are looking for some inspiration.......then you need to have a look at Teneale's blog.The inspiration for this card came from here. I coloured the flower with my re inkers on watercolour paper, as I wanted it to be the same colour as the cardstock and I didn't have a matching copic colour.I don't like colouring this way and I am not very good at it,so lucky the flower isn't that big.I have also edged the white papers in stickles,just to give a slight sparkle.Its something I wouldn't normally put on a sympathy card,but I wanted a pretty card.
I am sure I told you a few posts ago my youngest was sick,well she is still sick and has been coughing through the night and we have been getting very little sleep.We took her to the doctor yesterday and she has been put on the nebuliser,anyway she had it at 3pm yesterday afternoon and the little bugger was all wired up until 12.30am when she finally feel asleep.Then she woke up at 2 or 3 can't exactly remember,I was half asleep and then I had to try and get her back to bed.So, I have been napping today to catch up on some much needed sleep.Anyway,must go and get her on the nebuliser again..........will be back shortly to see what you have all been up to.Thanks for stopping by.
