We all experience loss, and in those moments, finding the right words can feel impossible. I appreciate having products to make these card easier. The Cards of Comfort Release was created with these kinds of cards in mind. All the new products are available now in the Taylored Expressions Store.
My first project is created with the Woodland Blooms Stamp & Stencil Combo, the Foil It - Woodland Blooms, and the Woodland Blooms Dies. There are a few different options in the Foil It - Woodland Blooms. I chose to work with the one that creates the flowers for two of the corners of the card.
I used a combination of Royal Icing, Tiki Mule, Sour Gummy, Honeydew Melon, and Brussels Sprout Inks. The card front is embossed with the new Garden Trellis Embossing Folder using Royal Icing Cardstock.
The sentiment is from the new In Loving Memory Stamp Set and die cut with the coordinating dies. I finished off the card with a scattering of Oreo Enamel Dots.
My next card is perfect for the loss of a pet. I don't have anything like this in my stash! I created the card with the new Faithful Friend Stamp Set and coordinating dies and the Paw Prints on Your Heart Die Set. I started by using the largest die in the Stitched A2 Layer Stacklets Die Set to die cut the card front from Honeydew Melon. Next I used the paw print stamp in the Faithful Friend Stamp Set to stamp the paw prints around the card front using Honeydew Melon Ink.
I stamped the paw prints from the Faithful Friend Stamp Set with VersaFine Clair - Nocturne Ink on Toffee Cardstock and die cut with the coordinating dies. I added Oreo Enamel Dots to the paw prints. The hearts are die cut with the Pawprints on Your Heart Dies.
Some cards are harder to make than others—but they’re often the ones that mean the most. Taylored Expressions’ new Cards of Comfort release was thoughtfully created to help you navigate those more tender moments with care. From heartfelt sentiments to peaceful florals, gentle textures, and meaningful imagery, this collection is designed to help you express support, sympathy, and love when words don’t come easily.
This release also includes a special focus on pet sympathy, with products that honor the deep connection we share with our furry companions. It’s a beautiful way to create something truly personal for friends and loved ones experiencing that unique kind of loss.
To make creating even easier, Taylored Expressions is offering a FREE Sympathy Palette Playbook with any purchase from the release (available 4/21 at 9 AM CT through 4/28 at 9 AM CT).
