Hi Stampers :
Today I thought I would post the card I made for Ethans family yesterday .. Ethan use to go to school with Jessie and his Dad died of ALS / Lou Gehrig's disease. He lived longer then doctors told him and his Family he would .He Lived with this disease for 10 years .He was 55 years old
I used the Thoughts & Prayers stamp set # 113252 along with the Sanded Background Stamp # 109294 I used the Chocolate chip , Certainly Celery & Always Artichoke Markers for my tree and also the Vintage brads #109109, Chocolate chip taffeta ribbon # 109065 .
I also used the Paper Piercing tool w/ Paper piercing template and mat found in the Crafters tool kit #104310
Have a Marvelous Monday :)

Until later... Happy Stampin!!

Dawn, your card is beautiful. I'm sorry you had to make a sympathy card though. I've been making far too many lately as well :(

I absolutely love this card! So much so I would like to order the stamp set. I am new at the card making/stamping world so I was wondering the steps you took and what sort of inks or markers you used with the tree. Thank you in advance. Again sorry if I sound like such a rookie!!!
