Kind soul

I am so happy to finally have this gorgeous stamp from Wplus9 in my possession! I'm in love!

I teamed up the floral image from the Wplus9 "Kind Soul" stamp set with a sentiment from "hello Lovely" from Concord & 9th. I watercoloured the flowers with Zig clean color real brush markers and water onto Canson watercolour paper.

Floral sympathy cards

When I make sympathy cards, I always try to make a few at once, because I never want to have to make them when I need them.  I decided to make these four recently, but I changed them up a little bit - same floral stamp (Penny Black's "flower cascade"), stamped and white embossed in the same place using my MISTI, all watercoloured with Zig markers, but then rotated, and mounted onto different coloured card bases.  I used a few different sentiment stamps, too.

This one uses a sentiment from Reverse Confetti "Lots to say", and a Simon Says Stamp Fog cardstock card base.

 This one uses a sentiment from an Avery Elle set called "With Sympathy", and a discontinued cardstock from Stampin' Up.

 Another using a sentiment from Reverse Confetti "Lots to say". No idea where that cardstock came from, sorry :(

 This one has a sentiment from Simon Says Stamp "Flower Friend", and the card base is a Hero Arts pool notecard. On this one, I accidentally picked up my bottle of Perfect Pearls mist instead of the almost identical spray bottle of water, so it has a lovely shimmer to it.

Gold and florals

Can't people just stop having birthdays, maybe for a year, just so I can build up my stash of birthday cards, please? 

 I used the Hello Lovely set from Concord & 9th, stamped in Hero Arts intense black ink and coloured with Zig markers and water. I die cut (and stamped) the sentiment from Winnie and Walter's "the Big, the Bold and the Happy" using some shiny gold cardstock. I mounted the panel with a thin strip of gold to a piece of Stampin' Up Sahara Sand cardstock.
