Hello my Crafty Friends!
I love how this sympathy card turned out! The layered trees in soft greens create such a peaceful woodland scene against the white background, and the scripted sentiment flows beautifully across the design. It’s a gentle, nature-inspired way to express condolences that feels both elegant and comforting.
Though the Delicate Forest Stamp Set is retired, I decided to use it because of its simplicity, which I feel a sympathy card should have.
Card Measurements:
- Base Card: Basic White Cardstock (11″ x 4 1/4″)
- Layer #1: Basic White Cardstock (5 1/4″ x 4″)
- Inside of card: Basic White Cardstock (5 1/4″ x 4″)
Take your base card and fold it in half, using a Bone Folder to create a sharp crease.
