I hate sympathy cards! I hate having to make them when you need them. The worst part yet is that I am going to have to write on the inside of this one. I can't find words that I think will help the person receiving the card! I hate sympathy cards!
I didn't use a sketch, perhaps it shows! I did use the emboss resist technique for a Papertrey Ink challenge.
Thanks for looking!

This is a beautiful card! I am sorry that you need to use it at this time. The reipients will look at it in appreciation of your extra effort, I am sure. I think that this technique is so wonderful! Especially on trees. I clicked on the above link and saw how she made a card with the same technique. I
love the twine and the dark brown half circle...is so moon like.
I hope you will not ever need them, but I hope you will take the time to make 3 or 4 sympathy cards. It is so less stressful and taxing to me when I can have it made. (Then I don't have to think...when I can't.) Just sharing a bit of experience.

Unfortunantly they are a needed now and then. I think your card is gorgeous, and I am SURE just knowing whoever is sending the card is thinking of them is enough.

Beautiful card. Unfortunately, I know from experience that it doesn't matter what you write. The fact that you took the time and are thinking of them is comforting.
