Sympathy – Simply Luv Stampin' by Sherri

All Aflutter Thank you

June 16, 2026 - By Sherri Minne

Another week flew by, and June is half over. It’s going to be holiday time before we turn around. Today’s card features the All Aflutter stamp set with matching punch. The layout can used for any occasions, and I made Sympathy and Thank You cards. Would also make a great birthday card. Here’s pictures of both cards I made.

There are lots of techniques you can use on the butterflies. On the Thank You card I stamped on colored cardstock and heat embossed with black embossing powder. On Sympathy card the butterflies are colored with Hydrangea Hue light and dark blends.

I love butterflies so these cards were fun to make. Hope you have a good week, and if the Lord wills I’ll be back next week with another video. Blessings!

On the day of prosperity be happy, But on the day of adversity consider: God has made the one as well as the other
So that a person will not discover anything that will come after him. Ecclesiastes7:14 NASB

Cards - Stampin'Up! - Sympathy

Thankful Garden Sympathy

April 22, 2025 - By Sherri Minne

Good day my friends. Today’s card is a SIP card – stamps, ink, paper. So quick and simple, but still very elegant. Thanks to Jackie Bolhuis for posting a video on this card. I have been struggling with a cold/virus so I copied her card exactly. She used a different sentiment, but I unfortunately need sympathy cards so that’s what I made.

Another nice thing about this card, it is very flat and won’t require extra postage. I have read stamps are probably going up again in July. Totally out of control as far as I am concerned. No worries sending this card with a regular stamp.

VIDEO:

Hope you like the card and video. I will be back next week with a stronger voice. Blessings!
