It’s Tic Tac Toe Thursday and this week’s challenge board is again loaded with creative inspiration. There’s lots of elements alluding to Spring, which is something I’m sure most are ready for by now.
Hop on over to the Tic Tac Toe Challenge to see what Team X has created to get your creative mojo flowing and join us this week.
In an effort to be more intentional with my projects, I created a soft and pretty sympathy card. Although I don’t need one at the moment, I’ll be glad to have it if a moment arises. I recently received the new Irresistible Blooms Bundle and was anxious to start creating with it and thought that the pretty flowers would work well with a sympathy card…and I think they did. There’s more information about this bundle below.
I chose the bottom row across: Die Cut, Pastel Colors, Sympathy
Materials & Measurements
- Basic White thick card base: cut at 11 x 4 1/4, scored at 5 1/2
- Basic White card stock: cut at 5 1/4 x 4
- By The Sea DSP: cut at 1 1/2 x 4
- Gold Foil: cut two at 4 x 1/8
Details
- Glue the DSP and Gold Foil strips to the top of the Basic White panel leaving about 1/2 margin at the top.
- Wrap twine several times around the DSP panel. I used a retired gold metallic twine. This is also totally optional.
- Add a twine bow using glue dots.
- Stamp the sentiment in Versa Mark ink and heat emboss with gold embossing powder.
- Stamp several flowers and leaves in Versa Mark and heat emboss with gold embossing powder.
- Cut the flowers using the coordinating dies.
- Color the flowers and leaves using Stampin Blends. I used Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam.
- Adhere flowers and leaves to bottom right of card with dimensionals.

Beautiful card. Glad you don’t need a sympathy card at the moment but it will be nice when you have one already done. Love the softness of the colors. TFS
Thank you, JoAnn!
This card is so beautiful and serene! I love how you used the DSP with these flowers. Another masterpiece! It’s always good to have a few sympathy cards on hand!
Thanks, Jeanie!
Beautiful in gold, Rosanne! Another great idea to try!
Thank you, Karen! The gold does add something special but I think I’ll put my gold foil away for awhile.
Love this card. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, Helen
