Nature Sympathy Card

For the times when you need a sympathy card, the Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Roots dies and co-ordinating Rooted In Nature stamp set are a perfect combination. You can easily change the sentiment and make it a birthday card too.

I used Very Vanilla cardstock for the base of this card and layered it with the gorgeous Brightly Gleaming Speciality Designer Series Paper which features lots of copper foil elements.  The ornaments were stamped using the Christmas Gleaning stamp set and punched out with the Gleaming Ornaments double punch pack.
