Sympathy cards are never easy, but I've found the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper gives a lot of scope for creating a variety of cards, including this simple Sympathy Card.
I always tend to over work cards, and I was determined to keep this as simple as possible and with very little stamping involved - just the greeting - this card would be suitable for Beginner Stampers.
The water-coloured images on the DSP are beautiful and embody the freedom of this technique. You will find so many little scenes that can be cut out from one sheet of paper, that you will be able to make multiple cards in one session.
The finished card.
I cut out the background in Whisper White card, using one of the Stitched Rectangles, and used the Stitched Shapes Framelits (circles) to make the detail behind the bird. These 2 sets of framelits are a wonderful investment and you'll find yourself using them over and over again in your card making and scrap pages.
All the components of the card were adhered with Multipurpose glue, and then the front was matted onto a Crumb Cake card base.
The products for this card will be available on my on-line store from June 4, 2019.
