My brother in law lost his Dad recently and I had previously watched some videos from Jill from Penny Black on using their stencils to frame stamps and thought that might be a nice touch for this sympathy card. I also used a tree stamp that I stamped in a couple colors of green for the leaves and stamped again with brown for the trunk. Then I realized there was branches within the leaves so I went over them with my brown fine line sharpie.

You have the most beautiful stamps. Love the sentiment of this one. And you did that tree so lovely with the layering of colors. Deepest sympathies to your BIL and family. 🙏🏻💕
Beautiful considering the circumstances. xx
A wonderful sentiment.
This is such a simple design you created, but its very powerful, and I especially love the sentiment! You are very talented! Blessings to you Connie, and may your BIL find peace in the memories of losing his dad.
That is a beautiful touch for sure! Great way to hi-light or soften. Lovely sympathy card. So sorry for his loss.
It's beautiful, Connie. So sorry for the loss xoxo
Good thinking my friend! This is absolutely beautiful and PERFECT! I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Prayers going up to the family! Thanks for inspiration ... I find myself having to make way too many sympathy cards these days so this new idea will be very helpful.
You can do a lot with those stencils. I love the tree with the stenciled circle off the edge and the sentiment overlapping. Pretty with the blue leaves. Soft and soothing. I'm sorry for his loss.
you did a beautiful job connie, it's nice to have the additional hand work. i really like the sentiment and the layout of the card!!
The sentiment on this card says it all really when someone's loved one has passed away. Such a sad time for your brother-in-law and his family. Your beautiful card will bring him comfort, dear Connie.
This turned out beautifully! Love the detail you added with your sharpie! It's the perfect sympathy card!
