This stamp set is turning into one of my favorites! I saw several CAS examples at Split Coast Stampers, but I'm sorry I'm not sure where they all originated. This is my take on one of them. I used markers to color the tree and sentiment. The Cherry Cobbler 'ribbon' is punched using the ribbon border punch and wrapped around to the back, then the layer was sponged on the edges in Cherry Cobbler and mounted on the white card base. The sentiment and the glitter heart are popped up with dimensionals. I did this card for a library class and they just loved it. Thanks!

I resisted buying this set too, thinking I didn't need 'sympathy' stamps, but I finally got it last year and now I'm so glad I have it. The sentiments are good as they are, but the tree and branch can be used for so much more!
Love this card...I as well had this stamp set in my collection but haven't used it...now I plan on using this with my card group this coming "Valentine" meeting that will meet the end of January.2015. Thanks for sharing.

Oh my gosh this is so cute! I love it. You could hang anything from the tree for all kinds of occasions. I especially like the way you sponged the edge of the card--it gives it a country/rustic feel.
