Simple Sympathy Card Idea + Handmade Card Template

Simple Sympathy Card Idea + Handmade Card Template

Hi all, it's Design Team Member Kate back on the blog ready to share with you this handmade card template for making simple sympathy cards! I find that sympathy cards are too difficult to make when that time comes so I try to keep a few available in my stash.  I like to take one day and make a dozen cards so that they are ready to be used.

Here's a simple sympathy card template for when that difficult time arrives. 

Handmade Sympathy Card Template

I took my Infinity/nesting circle dies and chose 3 sizes that would fit on my A2 card front  (in this case 1 3/4 inch and 2 inch and 2 1/4 circles)

The first card is the easiest:  3 circles, a silhouette diecut and a sentiment.

Supplies:

The second card is a bit "stepped up".  I used a panel of Dotted Swiss in Sandbox for the background and cut the circles from Dotted Swiss Salt.  A black leaf silhouette diecut and a sentiment strip finish this card.

The 3rd card gets a bit of the bling treatment with some Gold Pearls and some Shimmer Vellum diecut leaves tucked behind the main diecut. The main diecut is cut from Neenah Stardream in Crystal.

Just think of the different color and specialty paper combinations you could make using this simple sympathy card idea. I hope you try it and share your creations!
