Happy Thursday, Friends! On today’s blog, will share with you a delicate inspiration card made with a “Sympathy & Floral” look using the just released: With Sympathy Hot Foil, With Sympathy Stencil, With Sympathy Die Set, and With Sympathy Stamp Set from the latest November-2022 Stamp, Die, Stencil & Hot Foil Release by Pinkfresh Studio. Also, to make this card, I’ve used Overlapping Geo Leaf Hot Foil and Overlapping Geo Leaf Die for the hot foil stamped and die-cutting card background. Lastly, to add even more interest to the edges of the card background, I also used Blanket Stitched Rectangles Die Set. So, without further ado, let’s jump right into the step-by-step for how I made it ↓
Therefore, I started by getting the hot foil stamping done for the floral cluster, so to do that, I used the With Sympathy Hot Foil plate along with the Glimmer Hot Foil System Platform and Platinum 6 Die Cutting and Embossing Machine plus, a piece of white cardstock and a piece of Glimmer Hot Foil Roll: Aura. Next, to continue with the hot foil stamping process, I also used the Overlapping Geo Leaf Hot Foil plate and a large piece of white cardstock to get the hot foil stamping over it for the card background.
Thus, after getting the hot foil stamping done for the floral cluster and the card background, I went ahead to use the stencils included in With Sympathy Stencil to get the floral cluster ink up using some ink blending brushes and the following ink combination: Coral Reef Ink, Berrylicious Ink, Apricot Ink, Sunshine Ink, Marigold Ink, Grassy Knoll Ink, and Olive Ink. So, as soon as, I had finished the layered stenciling to ink up the floral cluster, I went ahead to set it aside to get the die-cutting process started.
Meanwhile, I went ahead to line up the Overlapping Geo Leaf Die over the hot foil stamped card background, and then I proceeded to run them through the die-cut machine. In the same way that I got cut out the hot foil stamped card background, I went ahead to cut out three more frames from white cardstock to get them layered underneath to add dimension. Next, I used the With Sympathy Die Set to cut out the floral cluster in the same way as I did for the card background by adding layers to make it dimensional. Lastly, I used the larger die included in Blanket Stitched Rectangles Die Set to add the detailed edges to an A2 size white card panel.
Moving on, as soon as, I had finished the die-cutting process for the layering pieces, I went ahead to get the card assembling started. Thus, to do that, I went ahead to get the backing of the detailed stitched card panel adhered with double-sided adhesive to an A2 size white card base. Next, I went ahead to layer over the die-cutting card backgrounds, and then I got the dimensional card background glued down to the front card panel.
Lastly, I went ahead to glue down the dimensional floral cluster over the left side of the dimensional front card panel, and to finish the card off I went ahead to add the card sentiment over the lower right side of the card. By the way, the card sentiment is part of the With Sympathy Stamp Set, and I got it stamped and heat embossed on a piece of white cardstock as I usually do, using the same products when I do heat embossing. Also, I used its coordinating die to cut it out from white cardstock and to add dimension.
Finally, to add a delicate shine to the card, I used my Jewels Picker along with Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue to glue down here and there some of the Glitter Drops: Aqua. And, with that being said friends, I hope that you’ve enjoyed reading the step-by-step for how I’ve made this delicate inspiration card made with a “Sympathy & Floral” look using a few sets from November-2022 Stamp, Die, Stencil & Hot Foil Release by Pinkfresh Studio.
