With Sympathy

Photo Details

Poster: BarbieP

This card is in honor of this week's FS Andrea (stampinandrea). Andrea has a wonderful gallery, and I chose this card of hers to case:

Thinking of You by stampinandrea at Splitcoaststampers

I decided to combine with this week's Mixed Media MIX4 Water You Doing. I stamped an acrylic block with 3 different colors and sprayed with water before placing on my white CS. I sprayed so much water, that my inks ran on the cs after stamping

I then stamped my silhouette and glued the image on green cs. I decided to actually make a white frame and run through ef. The sentiment is computer generated.

Thanks so much for taking a closer look. Hope you like it

WOW that is one fabulous background! I did smile about the water dripping because I do that every time and love the effect. This is beautiful and love the sentiment on your embossed frame.

Oh, so beautiful! Your colors are so soft and the blending with water is so lovely...what a great way to combine these challenges! I love the effect you've created for a sympathy card, with the stark silhouette against the soft colors...it sets exactly the right tone for the card.

Gorgeous card, Barb. Your bg technique really gave a wonderful watercolor look to your card. The EF adds a lovely texture. The PB stamp never looked so good.
