I have two cards to show you using SU's So Sorry set with various trees. I'm very happy I purchased this set as it really works great for sympathy cards and for someone who might not be feeling well.

On a piece of Whisper White paper I stamped the So Sorry sentiment in Marina Mist and embossed it with clear embossing powder. The trees were stamped in Distress Iced Spruce and were dabbed a little with Handsome Hunter. The focal image was adhered to a piece of Marina Mist and mounted to a denim card.

The inside sentiment was also stamped in Marina Mist with clear embossing powder. I used a pine branch for the inside.

The second card was created by stamping the So Sorry in Night of Navy and embossing it with clear embossing powder. I then lined up the second phrase with my Stamp-a-ma-jig and stamped it in Marina Mist and also embossed it.

The pine trees from Stampscapes were stamped in Distress Iced Spruce and were dabbed a little with Handsome Hunter.
Thinking of You was stamped in Night of Navy and embossed. A few pine trees were added to the inside to coordinate.

Both of these cards were for male friends. As you can see a very versatile set!
I'm off now to play in the dirt. Today is going to be a hot one!

Morning Donna,

Beautiful cards, Donna and the beautiful evergreens are the perfect image for the occasions.
Enjoy your day in the sunshine! xx
Lovely cards, Donna, beautifully made :-)
Both of these are lovely Donna. Hope you are having a fabulous weekend.
Your cards look wonderful. I love your ideas with Lovely as a Tree! How'd your playing in dirt go today? It was almost 70 degrees here - fabulous!
Nicely done, Donna!
Perfection as always!

The cards were perfect for men. Sometimes I forget they can use a tangible form of encouragement.
Have fun in the dirt.
These turned out great!

Omgoodness, this is so special - so soft and serene, lovely shading and color choice. These are the hardest cards to make but it's truly lovely!
What a beautiful pair of cards! Your color choices are perfect.
It's so elegant! I saw it on Make it Monday.
These are lovely cards. I like that you embossed the sentiments. Now I'm going to your post about the ocicat.

Gorgeous card and scene Donna. I saw this on MIM..Loz
This is such an elegant card. Love the beautiful stamped image. Thank you so much for sharing with us at Make It Monday. ^_^
What a beautiful card of comfort! So thoughtfully done.
The trees caught my eye Donna - they are lovely - especially when this must be a difficult type of card to make and get the balance right.
