leafy sympathy

Photo Details

Poster: happy-stamper

I stamped the leafy branch twice with meadow without reinking. Then I used my embossing buddy before stamping it in chocolate brilliance and embossing with clear ep. The edges and background were done using vintage photo distress ink.

It still doesn't seem quite right, but I'm not even sure why...

I think it's very pretty! I love the way you off-set the sentiment with the brown background!
