I had these pieces sitting on my desk and today's sketch brought them together, I substituted a rectangle for the circular panel. I've needed so many sympathy cards, the losses have not been for anyone I've been close to personally but for friends and church family members who have lost loved ones.
I sponged the image, stamped the silhouettes and then added a die cut bird using SNSS's Birds and Feathers set - I cut it twice and then cut the little bird to put on the green branch. The sentiment is from SNSS's Bridge of Hope.
I think I will also enter this in the present CASology challenge which is: CARE

Bridget, this is one of the prettiest sympathy cards I've seen! The delicate greenery and sky panel and bird/branch accenting the sentiment are wonderful!
