Happy Thursday, peeps! Sadly, I needed a sympathy card this week. They're never easy, but even more challenging around the holidays. I used the sketch from Sunday Stamps:
along with some warm plaid papers I recently got from Unity. Here we go:
I stamped one of the trees from the long-retired Happy Scenes set, along with a sentiment from Special Moments, both on Crumb Cake cardstock, and diecut them with circle dies:
I added a single leaf from an older Paper Pumpkin set, and since there's a wee bit of red in the plaids that I used, I colored in the bird with a blender pen and some Real Red ink. The inside verse is from Stamp Simply:
Thanks for visiting today!
I had my visitor again yesterday:
You can really see his moustache here! He's so BIG!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!

I'm sorry you needed this card but it is nicely done...love the plaid and the little cardinals.
Oh, my goodness, LeAnne your beautiful card is bound to be appreciated. I love that plaid and the stamped images on circles are fabulous.
Looks like 'Woody' is going to eat you out of suet soon!

I like the little redbirds in the trees and the way they pick up the red in that pretty plaid paper! This is a lovely way to send your sympathies, Leanne.
Such a pretty card, love the plaid papers. The tree images are perfect for a sympathy card. Thanks for joining us at Sunday Stamps, hope to see you again soon!
