I Brake for Sympathy

Hello stampers!  I am sharing a pretty Sympathy card today.  Often, I find a clean and simple look works well for these.  

I simply stenciled over the left side of my card panel and then stamped the silhouette over top.  I then coordinated the inside of the card by just using a lighter touch over my stencil, and stamping my favorite Sympathy sentiment.  

These stamps can be purchased in the I Brake for Stamps store. The foxglove image is part of a new stamp set in the store, available as Unmounted rubber (with an attractive price), or it is also available separately.

I Brake for Hummingbirds!

Hello from design team member, Heidi.  I am sharing a Sympathy card today.  I like to have several in my stash. 

I started by coloring the Hummingbird with Flower stamp and I completely fussy cut it out.  I die cut a window in my card front.  Behind the panel, I put a piece of a background I made using the Cuttlebug Embossed Waxed Paper technique (tutorial is here). 

Then I simply stamped the Memories Comfort You sentiment and framed out the entire card with green and yellow card stocks.

Thanks for spending time at the I Brake for Stamps blog today!  Have a great day!

Memories Comfort You

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing the last of three sympathy cards that I made for my high school friend and her family.

I used 

MEMORIES COMFORT YOU

Here's the front of my card.

May Memories Comfort You

Hello and happy Saturday.

Today I'm feeling sad.  Last Saturday a woman I know from one of my DTs lost her son.  Though I know there is no way for me to really comfort her because I can't begin to imagine what she's going through I wanted to send her a card so that she'd know I was thinking of her.

Time and time again I find myself reaching for this verse when I need a sympathy card.  It's not that I don't have others, it's just that I really love this one.

Hello and Happy Saturday!

Renee here and today I'm sharing a sympathy card with you. 

My friend who is one of my most loyal customers needed a sympathy card last week and this is what I made for her.  I used two images and one verse from I Brake For Stamps on my card.

The flowers are called LARGE VIOLET STEM and BOTANICAL and the verse is from the sheet EVERY DAY PHRASES.

Inside I used the sympathy verse MEMORIES COMFORT YOU

and the stamp called FOXGLOVE and BIRD SILOUETTE .

I stamped all of the flowers twice so that I could pop them up and give them dimension.

Vintage sympathy card

Happy Saturday everyone!

Today I'm sharing a sympathy card.  Although they're usually very beautiful cards I wish they weren't necessary.  Since they are I like to keep some in my box of cards.

My card features the verse called Memories Comfort You from I Brake For Stamps.

One of my favorite things to do is to stamp on printed paper whenever possible.  I think it gives an added layer of dimension.

 

I Brake For Dogwoods and Butterflies!

Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing a sympathy card with you that features 2 images and a verse from I Brake For Stamps.  The images on the front are Swallowtail (also found on THIS beautiful sheet) and Dogwood Blossoms. 

  On the inside I used Memories Comfort You.

I Brake For Dogwood Blossoms

My sister and my mom's boyfriend both requested a sympathy card recently so I'm starting to rebuild my supply.  For this card I used 3 different stamps from I Brake For Stamps.

Dogwood Blossoms

Memories Comfort

With Sympathy

For the front of the card I masked off a portion of the Memories Comfort stamp.

I stamped the flowers twice and cut some of them out to give it a 3-D look.

Here's the inside.

Beautiful Sympathy verses

This card is something that I've been wanting to try for a while.

Though I don't have any stamping on the front of the card the

inside has a beautiful sympathy verse from I Brake For Stamps.

The verse is called With Sympathy.  I made two of these and

used another IBFS verse called Memories Comfort You in the

other one. 

The doors and church were just cut free hand by me.

I embossed them on my Martha Stewart scoreboard.

The crosses are from Spellbinders and the door hinges

are called Hardware from BossKuts.

Here are the two beautiful verses from I Brake For Stamps that
I used inside my cards.
