The Right Words (#tttc287)

Sadly, I needed to make a sympathy card for a dear friend’s family. This sentiment from The Right Words is exactly what I wanted to say…

Do you remember this paper? It was/still is – an all time favorite of mine. Ever Eden. I still love it so much! I made the card with the new Tic Tac Toe Challenge in mind. Loosely. I realize this is a light shade of green, but could it be called “pastel?” You decide. I’m going for it! Circles/Pastels/Embossing. Maybe it could be considered a neutral 😉 in which case, it’s going vertical — circles/layering/neutral colors.

Here’s the recipe:
  • Evening Evergreen Cardstock (former SU In Color), 8-1/2″x 5-1/2″, folded at 4-1/4″
  • Ever Eden DSP (retired SU), 5-1/4″x 4″
  • Gold Foil Sheet, 4-1/2″x 3-1/4″
  • Ever Eden DSP, 4″x 2-3/4″

  • Basic White Cardstock, 2-1/8″ circle
    • Stamp sentiment from The Right Words in Evening Evergreen ink, topped with Versamark ink, and heat embossed with Clear Embossing Powder.
  • Gold Foil sprig from Pretty Florals Dies

    Such a lovely and heartfelt sympathy card, Karen. I wish I had some of that paper because it created a beautiful card along with the perfect sentiment. And, yes…it most certainly qualifies for the TTTC, thanks for sharing it!

    This DSP is also one of my all-time favorites, and I also happened to use it recently for a sympathy card. I would consider Evening Evergreen to be a neutral (really hope it returns!) so you’ve got that left column covered, as far as I’m concerned. 🙂
