ABC11S19: Today's letter is S with a double challenge of sympathy card. Unfortunately, I've been needing a lot of sympathy cards lately so I did the double challenge. My items for the letter S include Soft Suede and Soft Sky inks, script background stamp, sympathy in the sentiment.
I used today's sketch, stamping the script background stamp on both the card base as well as the tag base, both tone on tone for some texture. I really need to get a tag punch or some tag die cuts!
I colored Petal Pink and Wild Wasabi on the stamp before making the image. Punched a hole and added ribbon in the slot.
The sentiment is heat embossed and popped up with a dimensional.
Thanks for the challenges and thanks for looking!

I really like the script on your bg and tag, Catherine. Your flowers look like they were water colored, but I know you colored the rubber with markers bc I have this stamp set.

first word which came up in my mind was "champetre" searching the right translation = rural, country but I was more thinking about cosy anyway, it's a real nature card!!
