Hello and welcome, it’s Gaylynn. Here is a set of two vellum embossed sympathy cards. They are heat embossed and made flat for easy mailing.
Sadly, these types of cards are occasionally needed. It is helpful to have them on hand and ready to lend support.
Sentiments:
Nothing in life prepares us for losing someone we love.
My condolences to you and your family.
Here they are up close. There is no coloring involved in the card process.
And, a similar one is here with a different sentiment topper.
Helpful tips:
These are helpful tips for creating this vellum embossed sympathy card set. To begin, prepare two A2 sized card bases in white. Next, trim or die-cut layers of colored cardstock and vellum to make the look of a frame design. Also, trim or die-cut a white panel to be trimmed for the sentiments. Then, onto the heat resistant vellum, apply anti-static powder and stamp using embossing ink. Also, add white embossing ink over the stamping and heat set. Next, position and trim a wonky topper to the card width and then stamp the sentiment. Repeat for the second card. Finally, using flat double-sided tape or an ATG, adhere all of the layers onto the card base, to finish.
See how these cards were created.
Finally, I am sharing another look at the card set.
