I Wish I Could Make This Better

I always like using the patterns in a designer series paper collection that are out of the theme - for example, I used a piece of A Little Latte designer series paper on this card but one without the coffee theme...After choosing the pattern, I added card stock colors and elements that coordinated with those colors.

The sentiment is from the Comforting Thoughts stamp set and is stamped with Lost Lagoon and Pecan Pie ink and it is stamped on a die cut made with the Everyday Details dies. The sentiment is two separate stamps and I love that the fonts are different. I also added a few Rainbow Adhesive Backed Dots for accents.

Supplies:

Comforting Thoughts

Lost Lagoon, Pecan Pie ink

Pecan Pie, Lemon Lolly, Petal Pink, Basic White card stock

Everyday Details Dies

When you don’t have the right words to say, send a lovingly made card using the Comforting Thoughts Stamp Set to show you care. This sentiment-only stamp set includes messages of love and support for people who are going through hard times. The greetings in this set are inspired by the people who have survived difficult situations. We gathered from them the words of comfort they found during those times, and created this stamp set to help you love and support others in similar situations. Use this set for get-well cards, sympathy cards, or thinking of you cards. Pair with your favorite image stamp set to add customized imagery for your recipient. The sentiments are designed to be stamped as the greeting on the outside of the card with a complementary message for the inside of the card. The sentiments are also designed to be mixed and matched to customize the message for the situation or the recipient. We all have times that are harder than others, and a heartfelt card from you with a loving sentiment and personalized message can show someone they are not alone. Also available in French.
