Leafy Sympathy

I realized last week that all of the sympathy cards in my stash were a bit *feminine*, so I decided I needed to add a few that would work for male recipients.  I started with this week's Unscripted Sketch.

Next I cut apart two pieces of paper from DCWV's Autumn Melody Mat Stack for my strips and attached them to a kraft card base.

I stamped Hero Arts Three Ferns several times in Warm Green Chalk Ink and then added a sentiment from Hero Arts With Sympathy.  I thought the brushed gold metal studs added a more masculine embellishment than pearls or gems.
