I needed several sympathy cards last week and this is one of them that I created.
Using the Thoughtful Branches Stamp Set, I inked several of the stamps with Versa Mark & sprinkled the images with White Embossing Powder prior to heating it with the Heating Tool.
Sponging both the sentiment & the trees with a Stampin' Sponge & Pool Party Ink gives my card the softness I was hoping to achieve. The "ground" image is sponged with Crumb Cake Ink. The bird is stamped with Crumb Cake Ink & cut out with the matching Framelits.
The stamped piece is mounted on a Pool Party C.S. Mat. In addition, the banner sentiment is highlighted with a strategically placed Pool Party Banner.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Please remember that if you have any questions about my creations, I am only an email away and I so enjoy chatting with my blog readers.
Hugs,

Very calming and soothing – perfect for a sympathy card. The colors you chose are really nice. Love the sponging and the white embossing powder on the trees is really a nice change. Well done! Sorry to hear you needed the cards though.
