Sympathy Cards
I find the hardest cards to make are Sympathy cards. I struggle with the color the layout and the stamp. I made these 3 cards to send to a good friend and her family. I stamped the CTMH Swirl on the left card, ribbon and emobssed a fern leaf in gold over both the green and burgandy paper. I used a Penny Black stamp on the right card and took pink ribon and folded it similar to ribbon candy and placed a two small flowers on top of the ribbon, with a brad. The card in front has pattern paper in the background, ribbon, and a punched swirl. The saying is from a CTMH foam set.

Really nice cards! Beutiful!
Very pretty! I too find sympathy or masculine cards difficult to do!
These are really pretty, and very appropriate for sympathy cards. I struggle with them too!
Great cards. I just made a sympathy card recently and found it quite difficult.
Lovely cards...
These are perfect for sympathy cards! Great job!
Hi, I'm just returning the visit. You have some lovely cards in your gallery. I really like the black and white ones.
Gorgeous cards,I think you did just fine with these.
Yes, they are so hard to make - but they're also so much apreciated by the recipients aren't they? To know that someone cared enought to make a card, or to buy a handmade card for them really lets them know that their sadness is understood
very elegant cards...so much more personal

You've done a wonderful job here. These really are the hardest to make and sometimes the hardest to send.
These are beautiful. Anyone would be honored to receive them. I think they are simple and elegant, which is what I try for with sympathy cards. GREAT JOB.

Great Job! I struggle with these too, but I think the colours you have chosen are perfect.
