PP650 Countryside Sympathy

Happy Sunday, all!  Joanne is our Paper Players hostess for this week and she has a wonderful sketch! I just love sketches!  Check it out:

I needed a sympathy card, and I thought the patterns in the Countryside Inn papers would be beautiful used on Joanne's sketch, since there are several layers and that would give me a chance to play with several of them!  So here we go:


After choosing my papers, I simply layered them together and added a sentiment from Lasting Joy, diecutting it with a rectangular die from Timeless Arrangements, then adding some embellishments also diecut with dies from Timeless Arrangements as well as some little fussy-cut flowers:


On the inside, I stamped another sympathy sentiment (Hero Arts) and some little flowers from Lasting Joy:
And this is off in the mail! 

I hope that Joanne's sketch inspires you to create something wonderful...share it with us at the Paper Players blog and you might be our Headliner!  And while you're there, be sure to check out the amazing designs from the Design Team, they're sure to inspire you as well! 

Thanks so much for popping in today--enjoy it and be blessed!

LeAnne, as much as talk about not loving blue there isn't one of your dsps that I don't like! [Especially that wonderful wonky stripe!]
A beautiful card using Joanne's great Sketch!

LaAnne. The papers you picked for your layers brought your card together beautifully. So calming and perfect for the sentiment. Lovely!

What a lovely card, LeAnne! Sympathy cards are tough to make and this is just beautiful. Love the serene blues and the mix of patterns is perfect.
