Quick & Easy Sympathy Card Using Loveliest Tree Stamp Set
June 18, 2024
Today we're creating a Quick & Easy Sympathy Card Using Loveliest Tree Stamp Set. This is a new set in the Stampin'Up! Annual Catalog. If you are an old timer with Stampin'Up! products you'll remember Lovely As a Tree stamp set that was with us for nearly 20 years--one that will be remembered for many years. This tree set is a larger image of one of the trees in that stamp set.
Here's the new set
This is today's card...
And a bit closer...
Since our focal point is this lovely large tree we want to keep the eyes trained on that image. We stamped this is Misty Moonlight on white cardstock then die cut the image.
This is popped up on a light Misty Moonlight background. This designer paper (Take to the Sky) could be viewed as tree rings from a cross-section of a tree trunk. What a fun use for this design intended for the plane stamp set. It gives you an interesting background without taking away from the main image.
We embellished with the Misty Moonlight gems in the Tinsel Gems 3-pack--just a perfect match!
Since this set is nuetral in gender it can be used for multiple occasions...birthday, thinking of you, sympathy....and on and on. A great card to have several in your stash ready to use when an appropriate occasion arises. We stamped the sympathy verse in Misty Moonlight ink giving us this beautiful monchromatic card.
Of course, you can use multiple colors and create a totally different 'look.' What fun.
I'll give you step by step directions for today's project below followed by the supply list.
