Slimline Sympathy

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

I received a Spellbinders Scout Die Cutting Machine for Christmas, I love that it is slimline size having a Slimline length cutting plate. With the machine came a slimline embossing folder exclusive to the Blue Misty Scout that I received. Of course I wanted to play with it so I created these 5 Slimline Sympathy cards.

I needed to a few sympathy cards to my stash, they are not cards we like to make and hopefully won't need to use for a long time, but I like to have a few on hand so I have one when needed.

For my cards today I inked the debossed side of the embossing folder using Tumbled Glass, Chipped Sapphire and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide inks before running the panel though my Scout Die Cutting Machine. This machine even comes with plates for 3D embossing folders which by the way this plate is.

I layered the panel onto a piece of purple cardstock and then onto a side folding Slimline card.

I used Spellbinders Mini Everyday Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil Plate to gold foil my sentiment, which I adhered to the lower portion of the card.

To finish the card I added some Pinkfresh Studios Glacier Jewels to the lower portion of the card.

For the inside of my card, I pulled out my Paper Inspirations Sympathy wood mounted stamp and stamped it using Catherine Pooler Gold Ink. This is my favourite sympathy sentiment I have and works perfectly on a slimline card being so long.
