As I mentioned yesterday, I had to make a few sympathy cards for the children of a close family friend. This card was made for Marion's son, Sean who I know was very close to his mom. He's a very earthy guy so I knew this would be perfect for him. I've combined Lovely as a Tree with a sentiment set from Impression Obsession called Sympathy Sentiments. I hope this brings Sean a bit of comfort in such a difficult time.
I've made this card for WCMD09A which was to make a card using a quote or a sentiment.
Stamps: Lovely as a Tree (SU), Sympathy Sentiments from Impression Obsession
Paper: Gina K Luxury White, Chocolate Chip, 3 Bugs in a Rug DP
Ink: Close to Cocoa, Versamark, Basic Black
Accessories: Ribbon, Buttons, Linen Thread, Nestabilities

WOW! You've done a wonderful job for such a sad situation. I'm sure he will be so grateful that you've put your love into such a beautiful card. This one will be going into my favourites as I know that I will have some masculine sympathy cards to make in the not too distant future.
