I like to have sympathy cards made ahead, because when I need one I am likely too sad to be creative. When I saw the Memories & More card package at Stampin' Up, I bought one. I always like those card packages, as they are a nice size (4.25 x 6.25), have beautiful coordinating envelopes and they have various prints & patterns on the front. These ones are very subtly printed but the gold foiled envelopes are gorgeous!
I decided to make some sympathy cards and this first one has lots of gold on it. I die cut the With Sympathy from a white panel then matted it with a larger gold one so the gold shows through the center. A few stitched leafy sprigs and tiny butterflies and my card front was done.
Inside I added a stamped white panel with one of my new Catherine Pooler stamp sets, and another butterfly to tie it all in.
Having been asked how many cards I make I thought it would be fun to keep track this year. Many of my posts include more than a single card or project and below is my tally.
