tears speak sympathy card

You'll get a lot of sympathy card ideas on my blog.  I know it can be hard to have to make them but I also know they can mean a lot to the recipient.  They can express how much we care that we took the time to make it by hand.  My Deepest Sympathy set has many heartfelt sentiments to help you convey your sympathies.

For this card I used an oval die as a stencil and sponged on a light purple and a light pink for a soft oval background.

I stamped the tree from my Paws to Remember stamp set in a light gray.  And stamped the birds (from an old, retired stamp set, you could even draw them in ;) in a darker grey.  I didn't want black because it seemed to harsh for the softness of the card.

I finished the card by stamping the sentiment from my Deepest Sympathy set in SU! Elegant Eggplant, so it too wouldn't be too harsh.
