I made this card a few months ago for a friend who suddenly lost her dog. She loves flowers and thought a card with wildflowers would be nice for her to receive.
On white cardstock with a make-up brush, I lightly applied Hawaiian Shores and Spring Moss inks to create the sky and grassy area. I stamped the flowers in Amethyst Allure, stamping once fully inked and then stamping again without re-inking the stamp.
The sentiment is stamped in Smokey Shadow ink. The panel looked too plain, so I used my Wonky Stitched Rectangles to add just a bit of texture. I placed the panel on an Amethyst Allure cardstock card base.
I like to add butterflies to sympathy cards, and placed two on the card. My last step was tying white crochet twine around the card.
