Unfortunately, I find myself in need of a handmade sympathy card. For this one I decided to modify a card I found on Pinterest made by Lisa Young using Sheltering Tree. It's simple and clean and quick to make.
I used an acrylic block for the watercolor background. I spritzed it with some water, then dropped a few drops from my Marina Mist Ink Refill and Old Olive Refill ink refills. I spritzed again and used a paper towel to pick up the excess water and ink, then stamped onto my Whisper White card front.
Once it had dried a bit I stamped the tree and the greeting from You've Got This, both in Tuxedo Black ink. This was then mounted onto a Basic Black card base. I glued a Whisper White piece to the inside to write on.
Don't forget, you only have until tomorrow to pick up stamp sets from the Annual and Holiday Stampin' Up! Catalogs at a 15% discount!
