My husband's Grandma lost her kitty Tiger a few days ago. He died suddenly in the night and she is so sad. He was 17 and perfectly healthy...and most importantly, he was her best buddy! I DREAD the day when one of my sweet fur babies pass on. Unfortunately, this is her 2nd kitty to pass in 6 months. SAD!
For this card I heat embossed the wings from the Happy Mail set from MyCreativeTime...and I also heat embossed the paw {which is a hidden gem} from Mr.CricutCrazy's set called Man's Best Friend Vol.1. I inked it up with distress inks from light to dark in Tumbled Glass, Broken China, Faded Jeans, and Chipped Sapphire. I let it dry and then sprayed it with perfect pearls and water.
I used Emma's new Fancy Frame Die and Stamp set. I cut it out in white cardstock and heat embossed with white embossing powder and then inked with the same ink colors. I wanted it to be almost as dark as the bottom, but not quite. The sentiment is from the Sympathy set from PinkByDesign. I find myself using this set all too often! ;( but it is nice to have on hand for these hard to make cards.
Hug your Fur Babies!!!

ReplyDeleteWhat does spraying it with perfect pearls and water? Pet owners do need to be acknowledged. I recently ordered the "Man's Best Friend 2" Excited to get it.

This card is beautiful, although I'm sorry about the loss. I know all too much about it because we lost our beloved dog of 14 years on Tuesday. This card is very fitting for what we are going through as well. Thanks for sharing!

So SUPER sad!!! This card is beautiful and I know she will cherish it and appreciate your thoughtfulness. HUGS- Glora
ReplyDeleteOh so sad to read about the kitty. I love the wings and paw prints on the card. This is just so very sweet. I dread the day when Max moves on. He is 11 years old. 17 is right up there. I am sure he must have had a wonderful live.
ReplyDeleteAs a pet sitter, I'm always in need of new symp. card ideas. Unfortunately, I've had to make 2 this week. It's always such a difficult time, but I'm sure your husband's grandma will find comfort in this beautiful card.
