Altenew Beautiful Day on vellum with gold trim sides

Hello and thank you for dropping by. I really appreciated it. Today I am sharing two cards using the Altenew Beautiful Day stamped on vellum. Although both cards were made using the same stamp but were made for two very different occasions. One of the card is a sympathy card for a dear friend who has passed. I wanted to send a card to her family. The other card is an uplifting card and I sent it to a very sweet lady on her birthday.

For both cards, the Altenew Beautiful Day outline stamp was gold heat embossed onto vellum. For the sympathy card, I coloured the backside of the flower with Versamark pen and white heat embossed, hence the opaque flower. For the uplifting card, I coloured the backside of the flower with alcohol based markers. 

The sentiments, from Simon Says Stamp Handwritten Floral Greetings, were black heat embossed.

I really appreciated your time for stopping by. I know my blog is really not much compared to other card designers and you coming over really means a lot to me so thank you very much.

Sympathy card with Altenew Lacy Scrolls

Welcome and Hello! Today I am sharing a sympathy card that I made for a family who had recently lost their patriarch. I find sympathy card challenging to make, perhaps it was because this was my first time making one. I did have a vision of how I wanted the card to look in my head which I sort of replicate in paper.
