Oval Accent Bigz Clear Die Background


I made this sympathy card for my cousin who lost her mother this week.  My aunt was a beautiful woman who lived life to the fullest, and she left us at the age of 87.   She wanted us to cherish her life and all of the memories, and not be sad in her death.  So, I am glad that I can make a handmade card to send my thoughts to my cousin on her mother's passing. 

My card base is Summer Starfruit cardstock that I embossed with the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder.  I then used the new Oval Accent Bigz Clear Die to cut out my large oval, using Comfort Cafe Designer Series Paper.  Next, I cut and layered a Labels Collection Framelit in Soft Suede and Midnight Muse cardstock, and then stamped my sentiment on Very Vanilla cardstock and cut that out with a smaller Labels Framelit. 

It is fun working with all of my new products and love having five new colors to work with too. 

The following were used:
Cardstock:  Summer Starfruit #126839, Soft Suede #115318, Midnight Muse #126843, Very Vanilla #101650
Designer Series Paper:  Comfort Cafe #126898
Ink:  Midnight Muse #126860
Stamp Set:  Love & Sympathy #122795 wood or #122797
Tools:  Big Shot #113439, Oval Accent Bigz Clear Die #127005, Labels Collection Framelits #125598, Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder #120175
