Hi all! It's Trend Week at Just Us Girls and Bobby chose watercolor background. Certainly a trend, wouldn't you agree?
The brother of my husband's friend passed, so I needed a simple sympathy card. I used my Gansai Tambi watercolors and distress watercolor paper to create the blue background. Then I die cut the panel with a stitched rectangle die. I stamped the flower and sentiment with Versafine Claire ink. I had to stamp it several times using the MISTI to get the really solid image. I matted it with a die cut blue panel. It's also on fun foam for some dimension.
You can see more from the JUGs design team and our guest, Julia Aston, on the JUGs blog.
Thanks for stopping by!

What a stunning sympathy card - it's just the perfect make for such a difficult card - I always struggle with sympathy cards! Hope you don't mind my CASing this the next time I need one! It's really so sweet!
Water color washes are great for sympathy cards - this is lovely with the silhouette stamping and stitched framings Lisa!
CASimply perfect for such a sad occasion. Really lovely card Lisa.
lovely CAS water colored card
So sorry you needed this card, Lisa, but it's a wonderful sympathy card with its soft blue watercoloring and wildflower silhouette.
Your sympathy card is beautiful...soft and delicate. I know it will touch the heart of the person receiving it; it's certainly touched mine...
