Tile card


Using your Scor-Pal, you can make a diamond background. When you stamp on the "debosses" side with a solid stamp, the image appears as tiles. Be sure that you don't press too hard on the stamp or the image will get in the cracks. The cuttlebug background was done after the dark green strip of paper was glued to the light green piece. You'll have to give it a try!!

Sympathy

Making sympathy cards can be hard. You want it to express sympathy without it being too much. Sympathy cards are more on the simple side. Using strips of decorator paper and some gemstones add just a little extra. These flower stamps from Penny Black are perfect for keeping the cards simple. Add a sentiment and you have the perfect card!!
