Bare Tree Sympathy card

Hello and welcome to the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where we are sharing ‘Simple Stamping’ projects. This means that we are only using stamps, ink and paper only. I have used the bare tree image from the Beauty of Friendship stamp set to make a sympathy card.

 

Colours used in this card are:
