Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Preview: Day Two - Sincere Sympathy

Welcome back to day TWO of our May preview at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS. Today we are previewing a new sentiment set from Artist, Becky Pearce called SINCERE SYMPATHY.

Although sympathy cards are not ones we want to make, they are ones that we often need. I kept my sympathy card simple, heat embossing the image with brown embossing powder. The paper is Basic Grey Clippings. I added a double layer of cardstock to mat my sentiment and pattern paper. I kept my embellishments simple with a few dark red enamel dots.

My sentiment was cut out using a stitched rectangle die.

Inside the card I added a second sentiment from this set.

To see more inspiring creations using the Sincere Sympathy sentiment set, check out all of the Krafty Girls and Guests below sharing projects today. While you are visiting each of the blogs remember to leave a little love. We do enjoy reading your comments and you may just win some Krafty $ to spend in the store.

All of the May stamps will be available on Saturday after the release party.
