Country Home Sympathy ~ HSS321, CTC241

Hello there stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments color challenge #321 featuring Pretty Peacock, Cherry Cobbler, and Soft Suede.  I needed a sympathy card for a good friend whose mother just passed, so I took advantage of the rich, pretty colors and created a nice bouquet.  I also used the layout of the bottom left card on page 101 for Casing the Catty #241.  I'm actually loving this layout and will probably use it again!  

I started out by stamping my images from Country Home in Memento ink on Whisper White cardstock.  I colored in the images with Pretty Peacock, Cherry Cobbler, Bronze, and Ivory Blends markers.  I cut it all out with a Stitched Nested Label die.  

I randomly stamped the leaves and branches image on the card base with Cherry Cobbler ink before adhering a 5"x 3 3/4" piece of Wood Textures DSP embossed with the Tin Tile folder.  

A little bit of retired Cherry Cobbler seam binding ribbon, a library clip, some linen thread and a little swatch of vellum round out the details on this card. 

The sentiment is from Well Said and stamped in Soft Suede ink. 

I decorated the inside with a bit of leftover DSP, ribbon and some stamping.
