I used my last sympathy card today ... so I had to make some more. Because we all know that when you need a sympathy card is not the time you want to be making one ... so I always make sure I have some in my stash.
I pulled out several Retro Wood Block favorites for tonight's cards. The first is from Outlines Rubber Stamps and is good to have for so many occasions when you want to say something ... but there are no words.
I paired it with the bird from Unity Stamp Company's Sympathy & Sadness using this week's CAS(e) this Sketch!
The second one features Hero Arts In My Thoughts together with the Atlantic Hearts Sketch.
Papers are all from Authentique's Sea-Maiden Collection.
That is just what I do -- make several sympathy cards ahead of time. This is lovely.

I really love the sentiment on the top card. The polka dotted paper on the bottom card is so awesome. I love what you did with both of these sympathy cards. I always have troubles with sympathy cards, I think it has to do with a wish not to 'need' them. Thanks for playing along at Atlantic Hearts Challenge!

Love the color choices on both of your cards. That first sentiment is wonderful! The colors are soothing and a bit upbeat - which is great in my mind. Sympathy cards are tough to make, and you've done a grand job on both. Thanks for joinging us at AHSC this week.
