Tri-Shutter Sympathy Card

Here's another Sympathy card I made a few weeks ago. This one was for my co-worker who's dear mother passed away. I knew I wanted to make a nice card but I didn't want to make the same 'ole same 'ole folded card. So I looked at all the templates I had and thought this would be perfect. This is a tri-shutter card. I actually followed the directions in an issue of Cardmaker which made making this super easy. It took about 3 hours, what with the cutting and figuring out what I wanted to put on it. In the end I think it came out beautifully :) I brought it into work the next day and since my boss hadn't gotten a card yet I told her we could all sign my card so we did!

CARD 501

A Sympathy Card

Hi everyone, sorry I've been away! I've been busy working and helping my dad remodel the house. I've made a few cards here and there. I wasn't able to make any for Mother's Day and probably won't make any for Father's Day since I don't want to make my mom feel bad by giving one to my dad. However, there have been a few occasions where I was asked/ felt like making some. Below you'll find a sympathy card I made for my mom. She asked me to make one for her co-worker. I made this one pretty fast. Used different types of DP and added the vase and flowers with the butterfly.  CARD 500

Florisca Card

Mrs. Carter asked me to maker her a Sympathy card for one of her neighbors. I decided to make one just like the one I made for my dad's client.

CARD 294

In Memoriam...

My dad asked me to make him a card for the wife of one of his customers. She had recently passed away after being in a comma for several weeks.


So this is it. I've decided to incorporate a new little design in the corner of the inner left page. It's a little chick holding a balloon. It's one of my favorite stamps. I just think it adds a little cuteness to the card. Look for it in all my cards from now on.

I had a great time making this card. The tree branches and flowers Pam got me are fabulous, and the "With Sincere Sympathy" adds to the loveliness of the card. Instantly one of my favorites.
