"Our sincere condolences" card created using the Kindness & Compassion Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Showing Kindness and Compassion

April 22, 2020 Leave a Comment

After the events of the weekend I have been touched by the kindness and compassion shown by complete strangers. This is what makes us human. It was inevitable I suppose that I'd want to make condolences cards. This is the first, using the aptly named Kindness & Compassion Stamp Set. SOFT BACKGROUND I began my project by choosing the background design. This is a piece from the Perennial Essence 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. Using my Paper Trimmer I cut four ...

Kindness and compassion is always remembered

Before I start my new mini catalogue sneak peeks this weekend I've been playing with some of my older stamp sets. Today's #simplestamping project uses two sentiments from Kindness & Compassion. I love this set and the sentiments make creating sympathy and sympathy acknowledgement cards so much easier. SIMPLE LAYOUT When I'm creating sympathy or sympathy thank you cards I always try to keep them simple and uncluttered. It just seems to suit my purpose better. I began by cutting ... VIEW POST

Just recently we lost a very dear friend unexpectedly. I had originally planned to use the Woven Heirlooms Stamp Set for a sympathy card, but in the end turned to Kindness & Compassion. SIMPLE LAYERS I began by choosing a piece from the Perennial Essence 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper pack. Then I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue (Tombow) to attach it to a layer of Blackberry Bliss Card. Next I used Blackberry Bliss ink to stamp the "Our sincere condolences" sentiment onto a ... VIEW POST

One the hardest types of card to make is sympathy card. I like to keep them simple and quiet with very little fussiness. The Kindness & Compassion Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! is perfect for this. It's a sentiment only set which means you can leave it plain or add your own imagery if you want. It also has sentiments for the inside of the cards too which is invaluable. I addition to sending sympathy, the set includes a sympathy thank you sentiment, and I decided to use this for my Simple ... VIEW POST

I blog every day, which means I design and make over 350 new projects every year, and I've been doing this for several years.  That's a lot of papercrafting!  I'm not always sure where I get my ideas from, and sometimes it can be as simple as picking up a stamp set or piece of patterned paper and just starting to play without any specific idea where it will take me.  Other times it might be colours I've seen, or an occasion, often I'm influenced by my surroundings. Today I was most definitely ... VIEW POST
