Another Sympathy card



 As you know if you are a regular reader, I 've been busy making sympathy cards.
 Here is another card. Hubby says it looks like I haven't put any effort into making it....  (Slap)

So I said there was probably just as much effort in this card than in the cards in my previous post.
Then I started to explain how I made this card. so he would understand just how much planning and thought went into this card....

 Well I lost him half way through  my first sentence.
So this tutorial is is really for him,  but if it's useful to anyone that's new to stamping that's a bonus.

 After stamping the frame,
I used a stamp positioning tool  to get the sentiment stamp, in the frame, evenly spaced and straight!
 Hubby is a stickler for getting things straight.

Once the ink was dry, I      masked off the frame with a post it note and then stamped the floral image over the top.

Again I waited for the ink to  was dry,  (My cherry cobbler ink pad is very juicy ) then I removed the mask and cut a frame to go over the image and then adhered the frame and image to the front of my white base card..

Well,  Hubby  dearest...I 'll know when you re reading this post as I will hear your raucous laughter coming from the dining room.
