Another card made with the Cinnamon Cider and Black combination of colors! This card uses the Forever Fern stamp set and Forever Flourishing Dies to make a sympathy card. This card is easy and stunning for any occasion!

Measurements:

Very Vanilla Cardstock: (1) 4.5″ x 5.5″
Basic Black Cardstock: (1) 3.5″ x 5″ ; piece for branch
Cinnamon Cider Cardstock: piece for branch

Directions:

1. Die cut a branch from Cinnamon Cider cardstock and a branch from Basic Black cardstock.
2. Stamp 3 branches onto the Very Vanilla cardstock as shown in Figure 1 with black memento ink. Add black speckles around the leaves.

3. Use a sponge dauber, inked in Cinnamon Cider ink, to create a blended effect on the upper left hand side of the card around the leaves, see Figure 2. (Note: Using a blending brush (shown) also works very well to create this effect.)

4. Die cut a stitched rectangle (the 3rd largest in the set), positioned so that the leaves are in the upper left hand corner from the Very Vanilla cardstock.

5. Stamp the sentiment in lower right hand corner.

6. Adhere the 2 die cut branches to upper left hand corner. Tie a bow with the Gold 1/16″ trim and adhere with glue dot on top of branches.
