Backyard Basics Sympathy

Do you keep a supply of sympathy cards?  I don't.  I know it would make  sense to have some on hand but I just don't.  Today I needed to make one and while I was making the card I was thinking about the person who we were sending it to.  I hope she finds some comfort knowing that so many people care about her and are thinking about her.

Backyard Basics sympathy front

Ink: Black Stazon,  Pistachio Pudding, Blushing Bride, Strawberry Slush

I also lined the Very Vanilla envelope with a liner.  I love how it looks, just raises it up a notch.  Thanks for stopping by and hope to stamp with you soon.

Backyard Basics in Wisteria Wonder

I seem to be using the same sets over and over again.  You must think I have only 3 sets.  I really do have others but I seem to be in a flowery mood and am happily rotating between Backyard Basics, Regarding Dahlias and Flower Shop.  Bear with me, I am sure I will be moving on to other sets that I own soon.  The other thing I noticed is that I rarely ever use Wisteria Wonder, not sure why but it just is not a color that I pull out often.   So today I will share something familiar (Backyard Basics) and something not so familiar (Wiateria Wonder).

Backyard Basics Wisteria Wonder

Stamps: Backyard Basics, Regarding Dahlias, Background Basics
Ink: VersaMark, Wisteria Wonder, Elegant Eggplant, Crushed Curry, Pear Pizzaz, Basic Black
Paper: Whisper White, Elegant Eggplant, Wisteria Wonder, Shimmery White card stock
Big Shot: Backyard Basics  framelits
Extras: Simply Scored Diagonal Plate, Aqua Painter, Dazzling Details, Subtles Candy Dots

I Miss You Backyard Basics

Yes, I am back with another sample using the Backyard Basics bundle(132728).    I keep returning to the great images to color and the ease of cutting them out with the matching framelits.

Backyard Basic Bfly Calypso Coral

Stamps: Backyard Basics (132728), Really Good Greetings (130333)
Ink: Basic Black, VersaMark, Calypso Coral and Soft Sky markers

Big Shot: Backyard Basics framelits, Adorning Accents Edgelits
Extras: White embossing powder, Iridescent Ice embossing powder

Backyard Basic bfly calypso coral close

The card was looking a little drab so I decided to bling up the butterflies.  Here's what I did.  I enbossed the image with white embossing powder and then cut it out using the Backyard Basics framelits.  I added color to the butterfly by coloring  the back of the image with markers.  I still wanted more glitz so I embossed the entire front of the butterfly with VersaMark and Iridescent Ice embossing powder.  

You need to know that you can now get the New Colors Markers individually until October 31.  This is perfect for those of you who have markers for some of the colors already.  Here are the order numbers:
