WITH HEARTFELT SYMPATHY

 
Pinterest is such a great place for me to get started making a card.  The general idea for this card was one I found there. 
 
The card I saw on Pinterest did not have the leaves colored in so I stamped the leaves in Old Olive and finished the card by coloring in the berries and stamping a sentiment in the upper right corner.   After my first attempt, I decided I wanted a little more color so I stamped the outline with Memento Tuxedo Black and then colored in the leaves with Wild Wasabi and Real Red for the berries.  For the matting, I used the same color that I had used on the leaves.  The sentiment is from that same stamp set.

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving Day!!!  If you are participating in any of the Black Friday shopping, good luck finding some good deals.  As for me, I woudn't even consider joining in on the madness but if I find any Black Friday bargains they will definitely be on line.

Thank you for stopping by!

Pretty card. I went out to Michaels and to one other store but not until AFTER the craziness was over. Did some online shopping though!

What a simple, yet gorgeous card! Your coloring is beautiful!

Aren't these birds cute?  I've had the stamp set for a while and just hadn't inked it up.  The littlest bird was cut out and pop...
