LIM84/FTL207 - Treasure your Memories


For this week's Less Is More challenge, to make a one layer card using foliage and this week's Fall To Layout:


I masked and sponged the left side with various distress inks in autumn colours and used a Papertrey foliage image. The sentiment says "Verses Rubber Stamps" on the side - I can't remember where I got it, but it is a favourite of mine for sympathy cards - it's always so hard to know what to say when someone dies, but "Treasure your Memories" is often a good one.

  3. Beautiful card Ardyth. It conveys a true feeling of comfort. Simply lovely. This is the same sentiment I'm using for a card for my cousin's family.

  4. Gorgeous card, Ardyth, the colours are lovely together. When you say you sponge with the distress inks, what exactly do you use to do it?
