In Deepest Sympathy

Hello crafters!  Another sympathy card to share today.  I inked a piece of card with Shaded Lilac, Mermaid Lagoon and Candied Apple to create a pretty sky effect.  I cut a wide oval frame out of white card using the Double Stitched Ovals and added it over the inked card, trimming away the excess around the oval.  I added it to another piece of white card.  I cut the Sympathy die in black and stamped the rest of the sentiment an cut it out with the tag die in the set.  I added it below the frame.  I used the Cherry Blossom Frame and cut it in black, then nipped away one of the branches and added it to the frame.  I cut the robin in black and glued him to the branch.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are       7 1/2"  x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now.
