Soft Peach Flower Bouquet With Sympathy

I have a dear friend who lost her husband last week. I wanted to send her a sympathy card, but I wanted the colors to be soft. I stamped the image with Memento London Fog Ink and colored it with Copic Markers. It was then stamped again with VersaMark Ink, heat embossed gold, and cut out using the coordinating die. The die was used to cut out another layer from sticky back foam and the two were adhered together by removing the backing paper on the foam.

The front of a landscape cardbase was dry embossed with the Stampin' Up Subtle Embossing Folder, which add a beautiful linen look to the cardstock. The flower spray was adhered in place with liquid glue.

The sentiment had been previously hot foiled. It nestled in beautifully at the bottom of the spray. It too was backed with sticky back foam.

Iridescent crystals were scattered around the bouquet and the card was done.
