Heartfelt Hexagon, Meandering Meadows, Sympathy Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a pretty sympathy card to share with you. I like a layout I saw on Pinterest and I ran with it. You can see that card here. Please read on to see how I made my card.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut a 4-1/8" x 5-3/8" piece of Garden Green card stock and a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Crushed Curry card stock. I taped the two layers together.  

The Designer Series Paper (DSP) is from the "Meandering Meadows" 6" x 6"package. It was cut at 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" and taped on top of the Crushed Curry piece. That was all taped to the card base.

Next I stamped the words using the "Heartfelt Hexagon" bundle. I stamped the border image using black Memento ink and the words were stamped using Garden Green ink. I punched the piece out using the matching "Heartfelt Hexagon" punch. The "Heartfelt Hexagon" set is retiring but the punch is staying. I wonder what new set will come out to replace it so the punch can still be used. I'm hanging onto mine for a while, I still like the words in it.  Anyway, after punching the piece out Dimensionals were added to the back and the piece was set in place on the front of the card and the card was done.

I love using this DSP, it allows for making a super quick and easy card that is SO lovely. The scenes in this stack have such a serene feel to them.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's sympathy card,
Wanda
