Today's card is made with several old sets from 3 different companies. Unfortunately, I was in need of a a Sympathy card. A co-worker's wife passed away and of course no words can bring comfort but hopefully one day he will know he was thought of.
I stamped SU's Weathered on Gina K Kraft card stock (my favorite base CS here lately) in SU Close to Cocoa. The sentiment is stamped with PTI Enchanted Evening. I still have quite a few of their Pallette inks. I've heard some stampers have had issues with the inks, but mine are still stamping perfectly. They are at least 3 years old. I'm not complaining! The image is stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored with Prismacolor Pencils.
Stamps: SU Weathered BG, Thoughts of Father; PTI and Random Unity
Paper: Gina K Kraft; MFP Pensacola Sand
Ink: SU Close to Coca; Memento Rich Cocoa; PTI Enchanted Evening
Accessories: Prismacolor Pencils; Nestabilities
As you can see I did a lot of mixing up of brands to get the card I wanted. I used to feel I had to use all the same company stamps (or even the same set) on a card - especially when I was on Design Teams. I am enjoying the freedom of using whatever I want out of my supplies. It's really fun to mix and match. I hope I have inspired you to mix it up also.
If you are interested in ordering a duplicate or similar card please email me at sherrycampbellstamps@gmail.com. I am in the process of uploading available cards but if you are looking for something specific, let me know. I might have it on hand or be able to create it for you.
Thanks for looking!
