The Library Challenge #62

Here is the current challenge from The Library:

I read this book years ago.  In fact, it was the first Mary Stewart book I ever read, and it inspired me to read more of her work.  But for this challenge, I took inspiration from the cover and not the book.

stamps:  Stampscapes & The Ton

I did some ink blending in shades of blue for the background, then used sandpaper around the edges to remove some of the color and give it a distressed look.  I stamped the trees and the sentiment in black.  It's always difficult to come up with cards for someone who is suffering or going through a loss, but those are often the times when people need a kind card most of all.
