Green and Purple Sympathy Card

This card was made in response to the Operation Write Home sketch challenge #239. Sketch #239 was really difficult for me to work with. None of my stamps looked like they would work. I was finding it hard to make it my own. So I started just copying the original as much as possible, then finally got into it.

The green dotted paper is from Stampin Up "Just Add Cake." The flower stamp is from Inkadinkado. I colored it in with an Old Olive marker from Stampin Up and a water brush dipped in Elderberry ink from Momento.

The sentiment is from Hero Arts.

Here is the original sketch:

Life is Short...

I love the sentiment on this stamp so much, I absolutely had to buy it. It is from Riley and Company. Life can really be rough sometimes, and its good to remind yourself of the positives.

The paper is from Echo Park For the Record.

The sketch is from Operation Write Home -- sketch 234. My lighting was not the best, so everything looks are little more yellow than it really is.

I'm really happy with how this turned out. I really love this sketch too, so I made more cards using this sketch, same sentiment and different paper.
