Hummingbird Sympathy Card

Hello stamping friends! I hope you are doing well today.  I am sharing a sympathy card.  I do try to refill my sympathy card stash whenever a stamp is pulling me in that direction.



I started by coloring the Hummingbird with Flower stamp and I completely fussy cut it out.  I die cut a window in my card front.  Behind the panel, I put a piece of a background I made using the Cuttlebug Embossed Waxed Paper technique (tutorial is here). 

Then I simply stamped the Memories Comfort You sentiment and framed out the entire card with green and yellow card stocks.

Don’t forget that you can save 10% on these stamps, and your entire order at I Brake for Stamps, with my coupon code, SAVE10HEIDI.

I’d love to enter this card into CASology’s Summer challenge and WordArtWednesday’s Anything Goes challenge.



Have a wonderful day!

What a gorgeous image Heidi! I love how you've got it cut away and popped from your square cut out! The colors and sentiment are very up lifting! TFS! HUGS

This is a gorgeous card and I love how you colored the hummingbird and floral design. It is so pretty going outside the open area too. And, that is a wonderful sentiment. It expresses a comforting thought perfectly.

As beautiful as it is I hope you never have to use it. Such pretty coloring and I love the embossed technique you did behind it, pretty framing and lovely sentiment

Very pretty. Wow, you fussy cut out the entire image. You go girl! Such a beautiful design and layout. Great CB embossed waxed paper technique. It is one of my favourite techniques.

How lovely! Such a soft gorgeous card - the hummingbird is just so beautiful and a perfect match to the sentiment! I haven't tried this technique yet - looks intriquing!
