Sympathy Card

This is a recently retired set called "Asian Artistry".  I love this set and never felt like I used it enough.  I think it makes a beautiful sympathy card.  I heat embossed the main image with gold embossing powder (109129) on Basic Black card stock (121045).  I then painted the bird with Frost White (116854) and a little Champagne Mist (116806) shimmer paint.

After I let it dry, I colored it with metalic pencils in shades of green and blue-green.  The other images are stamped with gold Encore pigment ink on Very Vanilla card stock (101650) although in the picture it looks like Whisper White.  I'm not sure you can see it very well, but it has a dragonfly in the upper left corner.
Happy Stamping:)

Hello Stampers! I haven't posted in a while, but I wanted to remind you about the Stamp-a-Stack this coming weekend (Friday, December 18th from 6:00 - 9:00 pm or Saturday, December 19th, from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm). We will be making some last minute holiday cards, gift cards and money holders. Perfect for the last minute gift - gift card for the postman/woman, paper boy, etc. Here's a sneak preview of one of the money holder! This card is made using one of our new In-colors Bermuda Bay which pairs perfectly with Gable Green for a non-traditional look. It's hard to tell in the picture, but I've also used the dazzling diamonds technique to add tons of sparkle and shine! The best part is this card is big enough to hold paper money flat (or a check). I have a few spots left in this class, so let me know ASAP if you'll be attending!
