Many of you know that we've been busy trying to update our house. It was built 18 years ago and we have lived in it for 11 years. We have finished the great room (painting walls & ceilings, and changing out wooden spindles for wrought iron) and now are moving into the kitchen/dining area. So, for the time being I have put my stamping classes on hold until we can get our latest project finished. Besides routine painting, my husband wants to add a tile back-splash and under-counter lights. He does all the work himself so it takes a bit longer than the average construction worker! So, bear with me as my posts may be sporadic over the next two months!
But the stamping must go on.....and today's card is a pretty sympathy card using the Irresistibly Yours Specialty Designer Series Paper (138635) which was available FREE during the recent Sale-a-bration Promotion. Of course you can change out the sentiment as this would also make a beautiful get well or birthday card. Hopefully you won't need a sympathy card anytime soon!
