It's time for a new Addicted to Stamps and More challenge, and this time we are looking for DIE CUTS and/or STENCILS! To be honest, after I made my card, I had a moment of panic that I was supposed to use both, but luckily it can be either or both!
I was in the mood for some ink blending, so grabbed some distress oxides and blended them on my card base. Then I die cut this pretty cattail triptych, as well as cutting a frame around it. I also added the sentiment in a grey ink for a little softness. Adhered the die cut panel to my card base and this simple card was complete. It will be a good all-purpose sympathy card for the stash, although I have no desire to have to use it. ;) I'm adding this to the current challenge at Freshly Made Sketches.
Supplies: Neenah white cardstock, Unity Bevy of Butterflies sentiment, Memento London fog & worn lipstick, wild honey, bundled sage, mermaid lagoon & wilted violet distress oxide inks, Simon Says Stamp Cattail Triptych & Winnie & Walter Katharine Cutaways pierced rectangular dies
