Monochromatic Sentiments

This is one of the hardest cards to ever have to create, however we all have needed to share one with a loved one before. My husband has stated to me over and over again how I should create sympathy cards, I just refused to make them. Then one day while we were in a craft store he just started pulling stamps he wanted me to use. Well that's been months ago, and now the time has come that I needed to use it.


Although, I stamped a pop of color with the butterfly, I still consider this to be a tone on tone or monochromatic card.

Here again, I used the same stamps (because I love it:) just a different sentiment.



Up close of the pearls on the card. I added a couple of variou sized pearls on the card just to give it a bit of detail. I think these are two really soft cards and pretty to be a flat based card, I'm so used to creating in dimension that it's just odd creating a flat card.


I think I will work on creating more tone on tone cards soon, and add a bit of dimension to them. This is going to be fun!



Happy Crafting!
