Monday Montage 78

Welcome to the Monday Montage blog hop!  Every other Monday, my friends and I share inspiring projects.  Be sure to visit all the stops….you don't want to miss anything!

It's been a challenging week.  Two very dear patients and my husband's best friend all passed away within 24 hours of each other.  I haven't felt much like stamping this weekend, but I knew I needed to create a few sympathy cards for the families.  Since I didn't want this to be a sad post with only my sympathy card sample, I took the sketch along with the same stamp sets and made 2 more samples.

The stamp sets that I used are Totally Trees from the Holiday Catalog and Better Together from the Annual Catalog.  The sketch is from Freshly Made Sketches.  For each card, I simply changed the colors, designer series paper, and shape of the focal image.

By pairing an image-only stamp set with a fabulous set of greetings, you can create a wide variety of cards. The nice thing about the Better Together stamp set is that there are sentiments for the outside and the inside of your card.

Ink Colors:  Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Emerald Envy, Tempting Turquoise, and Basic Black

Designer Series Paper:  Festive Birthday DSP

Layering Circles Framelits Dies

Ink Colors:  Garden Green, Cherry Cobbler, Basic Black, and Crushed Curry
