Needed to make some masculine sympathy cards for our card ministry use, but wanted to keep using the "Thoughts & Prayers" set. I started with Kraft CS followed by Close to Cocoa run through the CB argyle embossing folder. For one card I stamped the whole tree and for the other one I stamped the foliage like a swag of leaves. I used the SU! Curley Label punch and a SU! Button Latte button for interest. Thanks for looking!
P.S. I just watched a tutorial by Beate and figured out that I could have pierced around the curley label punch embellishment to give it a bit more interest. Why didn't I think of that on my own? I love paper-piercing! Thanks, Beate!

What lovely sympathy cards. They are so difficult to make and you did a wonderful job. Thanks, by the way, for stopping by my blog and leaving me a comment on my wedding card. That was so sweet of you!
