Wonderful Romance Sympathy

This card is a copy from the Occasions catalog

this year by Stampin' Up!

All supplies used were from  Stampin' Up!

The greeting is from an older stamp set,

but the rest of the images and die cuts 

were made with the new Wonderful Romance bundle.

I water colored the images with inks from my classic 

Stampin' Up! ink pads and an aquapainter. 

It was stamped on water color paper. 

The inside of the card is lined with vellum

that I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment onto.

Last month when I had a few days to make several cards,

it was almost like it was a premonition:

I made two sympathy cards for a challenge

then I needed to mail them out two weeks later.

I also made a sending good thoughts card

that I could have made for myself after having

 broken a toe pretty badly one week after making the card.

I lucked out and will not need surgery on it,

but will have to wear a boot for 6 weeks. 

It's still very sore and swollen.  I'm surprised

to see the bruising disappearing after one week.

All of the cards I made in that stretch will be shared this month.

Thanks for looking =)
