Sympathy Card


Welcome to She's A Sassy. Today we are featuring a Sympathy Card.  This card was cut with the Silhouette Portrait a week before hubby gave me my wonderful Cricut Explorer, he made me feel so special when he bought it for me.  The design # is 57435 for those of you that have the Silhouette.






Look how easy it is to make this card. In the video I use my Xyron for an adhesive for the words With Sympathy. Since then I have been using Aleen's Adhesive repositionable spray and it is so much easier to work with.


Here is a close up of the paper I used. I got lucky and found a DCWV stack called Cinnamon Lustre, from Joann's for only $6! And look how beautiful the paper is.


This is a close up of the lettering on this card and it is awesome. I love how it looks up against the background of the card.


Here is a close up of the inside of the card. I use a stamp from Stamps of Life and from Close To My Heart and hey go great on this card.

 
Here is the final card and I love it. I put the 4 together in no time at all. Thank you for joining me today I really enjoyed my time with you.
 
Thank you for your sweet sweet words of encouragement. Your comments inspire me to continue sharing with you. Have a blessed day.

The font on this card is awesome. You made such beautiful cards and I'm sure the recipients will appreciate them. So, you got the Explore! Me too. Now I have to plug the sucker in. Maybe this week - or I'll wait for you.
