Sympathy cards

 I made these two sympathy cards. I find sympathy cards quite difficult as I think they are very personal, however these ones seem to be ok.
I stamped them and then covered the trees in silver and the wording in gold embossing powder. I do not have a heat gun so I held them over the toaster!!
It worked well, however if you are new (like me) at trying this do be extremely careful - I scorched the first attempt and so had to make it again. A fire hazard for the newbies so again, be careful!
I made envelops and stamped the same tree on the front of each envelope. Stamps are from stampin-up.
