Happy Saturday Peeps!!
Sorry I am late posting my 411 Challenge Card this week.
Have had a few things going on with DH that kept my focus elsewhere.
He is home from the hospital now and taking it easy.
Now onto my card.
Here is this week's sketch:
Pretty easy and straight forward layout.
I used two Stampin Up sets for this one, the flower is from the pretty "Summer Silhouettes" and the sentiment is from the "So Sorry" set. Don't you love that pretty font?
The base of the card is white card stock and the next layer is Primrose Petals, one of the new in colors this year. I then used a new Embossing Folder and white card stock again for my next layer
The pretty embossing folder is called Lacy Brocade and is available in the new Stampin Up Holiday Mini.
The DSP is from the pretty "Fan Fair" pack. I used the Labels Collection Framelits for my main image piece. I stamped my flower stem with old olive ink and then use primrose and my stamp a ma jig to add the blooms. I stamped the blooms a second time with out re-inking to ge the lighter effect.
The sentiment is also stamped with sentiment and primrose ink. The "So Sorry" is one stamp and then the "for your loss" is another single stamp. There is many other sentiments to go along with the "So Sorry", this set is really a nice with the variety of sayings.
I added a little embossed butterfly made with the Beautiful Wings embosslit die. I used some of the primrose ribbon and some silver brads for my accents.
Be sure to head over to the Stamping 411 Blog to see what the rest of the operators did with this fun sketch!
Thanks for coming by and HAPPY STAMPING!!

Your card is lovely. Very soothing and the colours are so soft.
I'm so glad he's recovering and wish you both every comfort right now. This is a GORGEOUS card, just like all your work. Did you see I used your set this week? You totally inspired me to purchase that set! ((hugs to both of you and God's speed to your DH for a quick recovery))
