monday... condolence cards

Condolence cards are one of the hardest ones for me to make but the new Never Forgotten stamp by ODBD makes it a bit easier. This first one is a general condolence card.


ODBD Products: Never Forgotten, Trois Jolies Papillons, Fragrance, Fancy Foliage Die, Trois Papillons Die, Beautiful Borders Die, Doily Die, Shabby Rose Paper Collection

I stamped the sentiment on a kraft die cut doily which I layered over a kraft border over a distressed and inked ODBD pattern paper. I stamped, colored and fussy cut the rose from Fragrance. I layered the flower over a green foliage and placed it over the bottom right corner of the card. I stamped and die cut two butterflies and added them to the card.

Here's a close up of the card:

My second card is a dog condolence card:

ODBD Products: Never Forgotten, You are Pawsome, Puppy Dies, Cats and Dogs Dies, Boho Background Dies, Fancy Foliage Die

I wanted to make another clean and simple pet condolence card and I came up with this silhouette card. I die cut the Boho Background Dies and added it to my base. I die cut a black puppy and clear embossed a small paw print on the lower right side of the silhouette. I die cut a few leaves in cream cardstock, a bone tag and added them to the bottom left side. I stamped the tag with my sentiment and added a blue bow over it.

Here's a close up of the card:
