Altenew Golden Garden Sympathy – by Sharon Johnson
Well, I finally got a card made for our Altenew week. I needed, of course, a sympathy card, so that’s what I did. I kept it VERY clean and simple as well as flat for mailing. I have been wanting to use the Golden Garden set, so I did, pulling a rose image that I silver embossed and then colored with Copics. I combined it with some favorite sympathy stamps. Take a look:
The card is super simple.
The silver mirror paper adds a touch of sparkle, along with the silver embossing and pink rhinestones.
The card fits a paper envelope that is 4.75 x 6.5″, so my card is cut just a hair under those measurements.
I don’t recall the last time I made a card without ribbon!
Psalm 23, my favorite verse for sympathy cards, is on the inside.
For this card I used:
Stamps: Golden Garden by Altenew
Deepest Sympathy by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps
Paper: White Cardstock, Colored Cardstock
Bazzill Mirror Paper – Silver
Ink: VersaMark Ink – embossed with Ranger Super Fine Embossing Powder – Silver
Embellishments: Rhinestones – Pink
Adhesives: Scor Tape

These are such beautiful brushstroke floral images.
