Stampin' Up! Flourishing Phrases Sympathy
May 18, 2020
Hey there! Another retiring set I'm sad to see go is Flourishing Phrases and the coordinating Flourish Dies. It's actually one of only two remaining wood-mount sets in my stash, and the other one, Label Me Pretty, is retiring too! Wood-mount was the way all of my stamps were mounted when I started stamping 18 years ago. There were no photopolymers or cling-mounts back then, just good 'ol red rubber mounted on wood blocks! I was hesitant to convert to cling mount and photopolymer, but gradually I did. I still love the feel of that wood block in my hand! Everything changes (except for the Lord who never changes) and now I love my cling and photopolymer!
For my card today I used Flourishing Phrases to create a sympathy card with Mint Macaron, Shaded Spruce, and a stenciling technique.
After stenciling with Mint Macaron ink on the Mint Macaron card stock, I ran it through my embossing machine in the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder.
I added a few Frosted Flower Embellishments to the greeting punched with the Label Me Fancy punch.
This set makes it so easy to create a sweet card for sympathy, wedding, congratulations, just a note, thank you, and hello!
So many of the supplies I used for today's card are retiring and will be gone forever after June 2nd, so don't delay!
