Sympathy Card

A former coworker lost her son recently and I wanted to send her a card. I had seen some cards made which used a brayer and a silohette stamp...so I decided to go with that. For me, sympathy cards are so difficult to make. You don't want them to be too cheery - but you also don't want them to be too dark. Hopefully I found the right combination.

What do you think?



Silohette stamp is from Stampin' Up. Sympathy greeting is from Clear Dollar Stamps. Ink and colored cardstocks are from Close To My Heart.

I actually had time this weekend to make a couple other cards...so keep your eyes open for more to come!

This is beautiful. It's classy, and reserved. Your friend will be touched to receive it. Very nice!

That's lovely Jane, just right.

I thought I recognised Stampin' Up Products there. I have the Heartfelt Sympathy one.
