Simple Sympathy Card



Hello bloggers!  One of the hardest cards to make is a sympathy card, mostly because it is for a deeply emotional reason.  Here is one that may appeal to you when you are in that situation.  It is simple, but elegant.









 The finished dimensions are 7" x  7 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x

  4. Hi Sue. Not much needs to be added to your post this morning -
    Tasteful, simple and elegant. A card that everyone dreads making and an occasion where less really is more. You have shown us yet again that with any of your dies we can express each and every emotion required for every occasion with a little thought and your inspiration. Thank you xxx

  28. Hello Sue. I agree that when we need to send a card for such an occasion, the most important message is that we are thinking of them and not that we are great at making cards, so the card does need to be a bit understated. This one fits the bill just right.

  38. Hi Sue, a most appropriate card for the occasion. I actually like Roxy in this incarnation. These particular cards are, as you say, always hard to make but here you have given us a very good example.
