You’re in my Thoughts Sympathy Card

| | | | |

While I really love making all kinds of cards, sympathy cards are a little more special. When I need to send a sympathy card, instead of using a card from my stash, I like to make them specifically for the recipient because I like to pray for them and their family while I make the card.

I made and sent this card today for a friend who just lost her father. As someone who lost her father at a fairly young age, I know the giant hole that can be left when a girl loses her Daddy, no matter how old she is. I wanted my card to convey the message that I am thinking about and praying for my sweet friend.

To make this card, I used the following supplies: Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder, Fully Flowering Ephemera Pack, Labels & Layers Ephemera Pack, Stylish Shape Dies, Thoughtful Expressions Stamp Set (sentiment), Brushed Brass Butterflies, Gold Foil Sheets, Balmy Blue Cardstock, Basic White Thick Cardstock, Early Espresso Ink Pad.

    I know this is not my own design, but I just LOVED this card in the Inspirations Brochure and had to recreate it. I did make a few minor changes to my card, but overall, it’s pretty much a complete lift. LOL! It is a 5″ x 7″ card and was so quick and easy…

  1. Lisa, my husband and I lost our son July 15th to cancer. He was 42, married less than 3 years with a baby boy. This card would be worthy of our tragedy. It’s so beautiful.

    1. Oh Dona. I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your son. I can’t even begin to imagine how hard it must be to lose a child. I will keep you, your daughter-in-law, your grandson, and the rest of your family in my prayers. 🙏
