With Deepest Sympathy

I have always had a difficult time making sympathy cards. I don’t know if it’s because it’s not a “happy” category, or because I just can’t seem to find the right words. So for this week I decided to make our challenge Sympathy cards. I haven’t been too successful with any of my attempts, so I thought it was about time to try again. I can’t wait to see what Jen comes up with. I may have to do some searching for ideas.

Do you make sympathy cards? For a while I didn’t feel like I could make an appropriate sympathy card, but maybe I can. I would love to see your sympathy cards. Maybe they can give me some ideas. And remember to post a link to your sympathy creations in my comments to be entered for blog candy.

Happy Crafting,
Kimmy

I actually just put some on my blog on Saturday. I always have a hard time coming up with sympathy cards too but I find this new Stampin Up set is perfect for this. Good luck. Sherri
