I always have a hard time coming up with sympathy cards. I actually CASED this card from this blog, because I really loved how it came out. I just decided to make mine a sympathy card. What do you think? Does it need anything else?
For the blue monochrome look, I inked up my Tombow markers and colored directly onto an acrylic block (using 3 different blues), sprayed with water and inked directly onto the watercolor paper. Let it dry before I stamped my birds.
Star Stampz - Monochrome
Stamps and Stencils - Birds
Inkspirational - Watercolor Smooshing
Sweet Stampin' - Anything But Birthday

What a lovely card! Perfect design for a sympathy card. I also struggle with designs for these cards. Great use of smooshing with the dual colored blue. Thanks for playing with us at Inkspirational!
