I love the Bokeh stamp from Stampin’ Up! When I stamp with it, just looking at it makes me smile. It is very subtle and makes me relax for some reason. For this card I inked the image using So Saffron on one side and Soft Sea Foam on the other, then I huffed on it and stamped it in the middle of a piece of Very Vanilla. I then stamped ‘With Sympathy’ from Flourishing Phrases in Black in the middle.
I will be teaching this in a class at our Local Senior Center in Kernersville on Wednesday. The Gold Foil paper surrounding the Very Vanilla sets off not only the stamp but the black background.
Hope you like this card!! All the supplies used for this card are listed below, click on any picture to be taken to my OnLine Store! I would love if you would choose me as your Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator if you live in the US!

The New Holiday Catalog is here from Stampin’ Up! and I’ve been having fun using all my new goodies! Are you ready to start seeing the 1st of my 6 cards?!
Here is card #1:
This was VERY fun to make! I used the New stamp set His Light on top of the Bokeh Stamp set, but this isn’t the bokeh it is the star one in the same stamp set. I stamped the Bokeh ‘star’ stamp in Night of Navy, then stamped ‘Rejoice’ in Memento Black. This is SUCH a pretty card in person! Here is the inside:
