Happy Monday, everyone! I have a sympathy card today using the sketch from Sunday Stamps as well as the Tickled Pink challenge from Retro Rubber:
So here we go:
Butterfly Basics is from 2015, and I stamped the flowers in Basic Gray, watercolored them with Blushing Bride, Flirty Flamingo and Pear Pizzazz inks, then fussy cut them out. The butterfly was stamped in Smoky Slate and watercolored as well:
The woodgrain background was stamped with some of the collage images from the set, and I added a sympathy sentiment from Hero Arts (also 2015).
I layered the butterfly with another butterfly stamped in Blushing Bride, and gave it a little rhinestone embellishment:
The inside sentiment is one of my favorites from Stamp Simply:
Thanks for popping in today!
Here's what I have been doing for the last week...what is it about a 1000-piece puzzle that makes you forget all your housework?! Thanks to my friend Peggy for lending it to me!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!
But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down but not destroyed. 2 Corinthians 4:7-9

Love your card (one of my fave retired stamp sets) and the puzzle is great too. Have a blessed day and thanks for blessing mine first thing in the morning.
You know I'm loving your color scheme for this darling card - and a double butterfly? Oh, you spoil me!
Loving that puzzle, too - your friend Peggy knows you pretty well! Even Mr. Chipper is there by the chair!

Very pretty sympathy card, LeAnne! Great color combo, too! I sometimes wish all stamp sets came with coordinating dies! My hands don't do well with fussy cutting anymore. Oh, puzzles completely throw me off schedule! LOL I love doing them but then nothing else ever gets accomplished! LOL Your puzzle is SO YOU! I can picture that scene on your backyard patio! Just beautiful!
Love this card . . . Just beautiful! Where do you get your religious stamps! I can’t seem to find them anywhere.
The prettiest card LeAnne with that touch of shell pink and the extra bit of dimension on the butterfly. Thank you for your verse today today too: We may be jars of clay but we have such treasure inside our hearts and the Lord will protect that forever! Vicky x

That lacy butterfly is wonderful! This is a lovely sympathy card. Terrific puzzle too, I spy a little chipmunk!
Beautiful sympathy card LeAnne. Love the colors and pretty design. That verse inside is perfect. Love your puzzle too. I like doing and it does take quite a bit of time and makes you forget your housework. Ha!

I love this card LeAnne! & this is one of my favourite stamp sets. The pink against the grey and white dsp is great, but I love that little extra stamp in the bottom left corner, so unexpected and delightful. I love the layers on the butterfly -so much to look at :)
From LeeAnn to LeAnne, your card is amazing. Such pretty colors. Thank you for playing with Retro Rubber.
A beautiful color combo for a sympathy card LeAnne, and a favorite stamp set as well. I think I still have mine stashed away... Thanks so much for joining us at Sunday Stamps!
