Lovely as a tree

Lovely as a Tree Sympathy Cards It is never easy to write out a sympathy card, but it is a part of life. This past week I had several friends lose a parent. My heart reaches out to each of them. I sat down to create a card for a friend whose father had been in the navy. It started there. I grabbed Night of Navy and I loved how it looked with Gray Granite. The Gray Granite Ribbon was a bonus and at last minute I decided to use the Rectangle Framelit. I knew the Buffalo Check Stamp Set

Do you want a simple Christmas card to make for your family and friends? I think this card would be perfect for you. I first started with the Sheet Music background stamp using Crumb Cake ink. To soften up the edges I used a sponge and the Crumb Cake ink....

I saw this Christmas card (on the right) on Pinterest, and fell in love with the colors. Thanks Cindy for your inspiration! On my card (on the left), I did not have Crumb Cake ribbon, so I used Soft Suede for the focal piece and the ribbon. A bit darker, but I love the results! Thanks for looking! Supplies Used: Stamp Sets - Lovely As A Tree, Good Greetings Paper - Soft Suede, Early Espresso, Whisper White Ink - Early Espresso, Versamark Accessories - Heat Gun, White Embossing Powder…

Today's card is a pretty clean and simple one inspired by the Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge. Since I had pulled this set out to show to someone at my stamp a stack I thought I would use it since it's been a while. Plus I needed a birthday card for my nephew. :) Thanks for looking and have a great day! Stamp Set: Lovely as a Tree & Express Yourself Card Stock: Basic Black, Crumb Cake & Very Vanilla Ink: StazOn Black Punches: 1 1/4" Square & 1 3/8" Square Candy Dots: Neutrals

This is really a simple card to create. I used the fourth from the smallest of the Circle Framelits to cut a hole in a scrap piece of CS and then sponged within the circle onto the top layer of CS.

Today's card is another version of the card I posted the other day. What a dramatic difference simply changing out the colors made! Now, I have a card perfect for Thanksgiving, or for thanking a friend for a gift of kindness. I hope you enjoy today's card.

This morning's Easter sunrise was absolutely glorious, and it inspired me to make this card. Our trees aren't fully leafed out yet, so it looked something like this. As I am sure some of you have noticed by now, Lovely as a Tree is being carried over again! I think that makes something like twelve years it's been around. It is certainly the one of longest-lived Stampin' Up! stamp sets that I know of, along with Teeny Tiny Wishes. And rightfully so! My own sets of those two are old enough…

Created this card for the weekly theme challenge at The Paper Players using the Lovely as a Tree, Buffalo Check and Merry Christmas to All stamp sets from Stampin’ Up!® Stampin’ Anne - Designs by Anne Marie Hile
