Julie's Creative Stamping: Dove of Hope "Sympathy" card

This set is so beautiful and unfortunately I was in need of a sympathy card so I thought I would use the Dove of Hope stamp set by Stampin UP®. This card could be considered a simple stamping card as I did not use any dies for this card. I did add some embellishments to add a delicate touch! I wanted a delicate look so I used Mint Macaron as I've always liked this color. I was very pleased with the finished card and am planning on making a few more to have on hand just in case I need another sympathy card. Hopefully I won't but just in case I will have them on hand.

Here's a video link for this card and a Christmas Card that I made with this set.
