more "SIMPLY SKETCHED"

In my last post, I mentioned  how much I simply enjoy using the Simply Sketched set.  Today's card features two more stamps from that box.

 This time the outline sketch is stamped in Stazon ink to prevent bleeding while I added layers of color using my ink pads and blender pen.The white cardstock circle is also delicately sponged with Pumpkin Pie ink

The Pumpkin Pie mat is given a textured boost using an embossing folder, which coordinates beautifully with that designer series paper (see which one below in list of supplies).

The half doily balances off the card and adds just a touch of gentle delicacy.

The death of a loved one is so hard; in the midst of the grief, a handmade card with an aptly written personal note can do so much to comfort a grieving soul.

stamps:  Simply Sketched
