Simply Sketched Sympathy

 
Most times when need a card we know it ahead of time and can plan for it.  Not so when we need a sympathy card.  I like to have some sympathy cards on hand at all times.  This is a card I made a few months ago and fortunately I haven’t needed to use it yet, so I thought I’d share it with you.

Soft & Sweet Thank You

 
I just came across this card again the other day.  I used this card as a thank you and invitation to my Exclusive Party I held a few months ago.  I think the Simply Sketched stamp set is one of the prettiest hostess stamps sets we’ve had.  If you don’t own this stamp set yet, then you need to contact me to schedule a party or have a book party so you can choose this set with some of your free hostess dollars (that’s the only way you can get hostess stamp sets).

Morning Meadow

I love how Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay are such great compliments to one another.  I used three different images from the hostess stamp set Morning Meadow for this card.  The Window Frames Framelits make it super easy to do the layering on the flap.
