Pet Sympathy Card with Quiet Reflections

Last week my friend Susan had to say goodbye to her special fur baby. Milo was truly a one of a kind dog. (He even won a trophy!)

Best Rescue Dog of the Year – Oxford Day 2023

Dog sitting for Milo is the reason we adopted our rescue dog and I can’t imagine my life without Bo. This past week has been difficult for my friend. I wanted to make a special card to honor her best buddy. (Do you see Milo in the garden? I used the retired stamp set, Hot Dog, to stamp and color “Milo”.)

This sentiment from Quiet Reflections is the reason I had to have this stamp set!
Stampin' Up! Quiet Reflections stamp set-visit juststampin.com for inspiration and ordering information-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
This set comes complete with multiple sentiments to share your love and support with someone in their time of need. It also features photo-realistic images of trees reflecting on water—such creative color possibilities!

I chose to use the Meandering Meadows Designer Series Paper for this card because it reminds me of Milo’s home. He loved to play in the yard (when he wasn’t snuggled under his blanket), chase rabbits, and sniff the flowers.

Q is for Quick Color Combos with Color Buddies

Stampin' Up! ABC Color Series - visit juststampin.com for color inspiration and color combinations from A to Z - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Welcome to my ABC Color Series! Stampin’ Up! offers so many great color choices!  I love to combine different colors and patterns and hope to inspire you with some fun color combinations throughout this series. Today’s cards feature some Quick Color Combos. I’m a big fan of “Color Buddies”!

Color Buddies are monochromatic colors that work well together. Just combine different shades of the same hue. Pretty simple, right?!

Sometimes changing up the color combos—even when using the same card design—creates a completely different look and feel!

Measurements:

  • Card base: 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4
  • Coordinating Cardstock Layer:  cut 2 @ 3 7/8 x 5 1/8
  • Embossed Layer: 3 3/4 x 5
  • Basic White: 3 3/4 x 5 (inside), scrap to stamp and punch sentiment

I love Stampin’ Up! punches! Stamp a sentiment or image on cardstock, then cut it out with the punch. So easy!  I used the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch on these cards.  You can make quick labels, tags, and accents with this punch. It works with so many sentiment stamps! You can purchase the punch as a bundle and save 10%! The Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle is on the list of My Favorite Things.
Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle-visit juststampin.com for handmade inspiration and to order Stampin' Up products-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Stamp a sentiment, then frame it with a pretty border. The Heartfelt Hexagon Stamp Set has images for stamping labels, tags, and focal points. The sentiments are great for many life events and occasions, from birthdays and weddings to support and sympathy. The fonts and designs are timeless so they look beautiful on any project.

Last Chance for Garden Walk and More!

I LOVE the Garden Walk Designer Series Paper! In fact, it is my favorite DSP for year round versatility from the Sept.- Dec. Mini Catalog. The unique and varying images represent flowers from all seasons of the year. Unfortunately, this paper is retiring on Jan. 3rd.

Stampin' Up! Garden Walk Designer Series Paper-visit juststampin.com for inspiration and more-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Coordinating Colors: Poppy Parade, Calypso Coral, Wild Wheat, Mossy Meadow, Garden Green, Pretty Peacock

I am thrilled to be back in my craft room and I have been on a roll creating lots of cards!
Today I’m sharing some simple card designs showcasing how the different patterns from the Garden Walk DSP mix and match together for many different occasions.

The first set of cards showcase both sides of this versatile DSP. Each card uses 1 sheet of 6×6 DSP and the best part is….there’s no waste!

You can use any punch or die for the sentiment layer. I used Sentimental Park, Timeless Arrangements, and Heartfelt Hexagon Bundles.

The next set of cards is another example of quick & easy.

This card also showcases both sides of the DSP. However, you can easily change it up to use the non holiday pattern on the reverse side to mix with some of the other patterns to create many cards throughout the year. Take a look at some of the different versions I created mixing the non holiday side with some of the other patterns:
