A sympathy card made today for a neighbour who sadly lost her husband a few days ago. I used the Memory Box 'Prim Poppy' die as a silhouette, but despite the sad occasion, I wanted to add a little colour. I had a little snippet of the raspberry pink pearlised card left over from the card I posted yesterday, so I used this for matting.
Usually I prefer the sentiment 'Thinking of You', but somehow the sentiment 'With Sympathy' seemed more appropriate for this particular neighbour - I'm not sure why. I punched out three tiny flowers from the pink card to finish off my card.
That is beautiful, so simple and elegant as I feel sympathy cards should be. I had to make one today too :(

Simply gorgeous Liz. Sadly we do need these kind of cards. But they do give comfort because people just sence there has been put in love to make them.
