I had a funeral to go to yesterday. My brother-in-law's brother passed away mid September from a sudden heart attack. He was 50 years-old. I whipped up a Sympathy Card in 10 minutes. No bragging, just amazed that when you have to get something done, it gets done. Most times, my inspiration comes in an instant. If I don't jot my idea down, it's gone from my mind. Let me tell you, I have post-its all over the place with stuff I want to remember. The thing is, trying to organized all my ideas.
Anyway, here's the card that I made:
Anyway, here's the card that I made:
I used my Cricut (love that machine!) to cut out my leaf and added a ribbon to its stem. For embellishments, I added some brads and another leaf punchout. What about the word art? I used stamps . . . {With Deepest Sympathy} by Hero Arts and {Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted} by Stamp A Mania. I bought these a while ago at a local stamp store. I inked the edges of the cover word art to make it stand out a bit.
This was my quickie inspiration for the day. What kinds of inspirations do you have? I would love to hear or see them! Inspirations are a JOURNEY in itself. To be able to express those inspirations is an outlet for creativity!
