Furever In Our Hearts

Hey everybody, Happy Friday! I hope you’ve had a great week! I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a sweet pet sympathy card. Sympathy cards for humans or pets are typically difficult for me but this one came together fairly easily, probably because of my favorite Lessebo cardstock and the awesome Waffle Flower Gradient Heart Panel Dies I used. Our Lessebo cardstock is on sale this month, so be sure to stock up! I used Cherry Red, Brick Orange, Sunflower Yellow, Hunter Green and Navy Blue, all from the Lessebo line.

I cut the card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock. I then used the Waffle Flower Gradient Heart Panel Dies to cut all the heart-shaped pieces for the focal panel from the Lessebo cardstock in rainbow colors. I used a Paper Smooches Cat Icons paw die to cut the shape from the center of the heart and backed it with blue cardstock. I assembled the panel, added foam strips to the back and adhered it to the card base. I stamped the sentiments from the Kat Scrappiness Rainbow Bridge stamp set in Catherine Pooler Juniper Mist ink. I added a few iridescent gemstones which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with varying sizes of strips cut from leftover pieces of the Lessebo cardstock used on the front. I stamped another sentiment and the angel pup image from the same stamp set in the Juniper Mist ink and added the halo stamped in Catherine Pooler Shea Butter ink.
