Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for
This month, we would love to see your cards with the theme chosen by Myself.
Hearts
February is the time of professing our love, but this year, I am dealing with a Sympathy card, because I saw the beautiful words on the stamp and had to use it and maybe it's the mood I'm in!
I started with looking for stamps with hearts and found a few. I then went searching for a sentiment, but as it happens I found this, thought it lovely, so went with it. In case you can't read it, it says,
"Wrapping you in Love
at a time when words fall short."
Aren't they lovely?
I stamped the heart then the sentiment, next I coloured the heart simply. It looked a little plain, so I embossed the top and bottom of the card. Definitely a CAS card. The card actually went to a lady whose hubby is very ill.
heart stamp - Magazine freebie SCP
sentiment - Avian Allure by Alex Syberia SCP272

I hope to see you at the challenge, what's your take on hearts?

What a simple and gorgeous card. I think I have that heart atamp too. It works really well with that sentiment and the embossing. I can see why you chose to make it xx
Love your card, the image and embossing works so well together. Anesha
This is such a lovely card that will bring comfort to your friend. I agree with you ... that sentiment has to be the most wonderful to express how you feel. And those words will make your friend feel very special. Beautiful card Faith! xx
Very pretty card. Love the sentiment and great choice in adding the embossing to the top and bottom. I'm sure the receiver will really appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Hope you have a wonderful day!

Lovely and heartfelt sympathy card, Faith.
Well, I think it's cool when we use stamps in ways not obviously intended. I did one of those this week with a sympathy stamp used on a retirement card. Love the embossing at top and bottom of yours and that heart and sentiment are perfect. Hope you are staying cozy and warm and not too much rain! xox
What beautiful words for any 'serious' occasion, Faith, and they are used wonderfully on this exquisite card
Blessings
