Tree Sympathy

Photo Details

Poster: Cook22

I've had a horrible run on sympathy cards recently, and since this is going to the same family I made 3 different cards (for different members), I couldn't use any of my spares from December.
I took my inspiration from THIS card by scrapbook4ever, which I came across when I was listing my favourites of the year. Lots of masking and sponging, stamped the sentiment and then added the border.

I'm going to have to CASE this beauty. The sun/moon is a terrific addition. The reflection is done so well too.

Very pretty and the reflection imaged trees work well for a sympathy card. So sorry you needed all these cards :(

Such a beautifully serene scene and you've done the reflection technique perfectly! No doubt the recipient will appreciate your thoughtful creation.

Sympathy cards are always tough, and it seems that the need for them certainly goes in streaks at times. I am sorry for your loss. :( Beautiful job on the card - it is both comforting and uplifting, which I am sure the recipients appreciate!
