This pretty Northwoods Monarch Butterfly stamp and the Kaiser Craft Pearls can be found at Stamper's Dream. The black matted panel with the cornice edge is up on Dimensionals.
We thought it would be nice to somehow incorporate the name "poppa" on the card. I used my JustRite Trompe Lowercase Font and Rectangle Stamper to make the sentiment, stamped on Neenah Natural White. Then I stamped his name on Pale Plum and punched out the butterfly, which is up on Dimensionals.

Denise, this is beautiful but I'm sorry you had to make it :(
ReplyDeleteI really like how you added Poppa in the butterfly.
So sorry you were in need of a sympathy card, but this beauty is sure to give someone a smile even if only for a moment.
ReplyDeleteYour coloring is amazing, as always! And I love the addition of his name and the sentiment with the JustRite font!
Such an eyecatching card, Denise. Sympathy cards are sometimes hard to make...you expressed this one beautifully!
ReplyDeleteI'm in a flux. My card area looks like a bomb went off between the tv and the computer and it's NOT an incentive to be creative. But I was thinking of using that same monarch butterfly stamp on acetate, and coloring it in with iridescent paint. I need to do that before I torch everything.
