Wow--where did the month of August go? I can't believe it's already the 1st of September!! Our youngest had his 1st day back to school yesterday--it sounds like he had a really fun day! Our oldest goes back to school after the holiday so he has a few more days of freedom. Today, I have a sympathy card to share with you.

The sentiment on the card is one of the stamps from
JB-08740 Thinking of You stamp set from
JustRite Stampers. I really like this stamp set for sympathy cards, the sentiments are so nice.

I stamped the sentiment using
Memento Rich Cocoa ink onto Ivory cardstock. Then I colored the border with a
Copic marker. The
JB-08740 Thinking of You stamp set fits with the
JB-09516 Clear Oval Stampers 2-1/4'' x 3-1/16'' from
JustRite Stampers. I used the
S4-112 Classic Ovals Small die #5 from
Spellbinders™ to cut/emboss the diecut.

Here is a close-up of the sentiment once it was adhered to the card. I also used
S4-111 Classic Scalloped Ovals Large die #5 to create a mat and then I added some light chocolate ribbon. I used
3D Foam Squares from
SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES By 3L™ to add a little dimension.

To create the other diecuts I used
S5-025 Labels Seventeen dies #3, #4 and
S4-265 Cross Collection. After I had them cut/embossed then I inked the edges with Ranger Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

Here is a close up of the labels and the cross diecuts. I used
3D Foam Squares to add dimension and I also added a few Brown Lush Rhinestones from
My Mind's Eye.
