A simple card this time. Sympathy cards are ones that im not especially keen on making (who is?), however as cardmakers know, sometimes unfortunately its necessary to have to make one.
As i dont have a 'with sympathy' stamp, I had a go at designing my own. We recently finally got round to buying a printer, so i made a word document, with 3 columns, and wrote 'with deepest sympathy', and repeated this to fill the page with 3 columns. I then chose a different font for each column. it took a bit of playing around until i was happy with the result, then i printed them out in black ink onto pearl silver card and pearl cream card. i then cut them out and passed them through the cuttlebug using a spellbinders label die.
The card itself was made with a tree topper from the Kanban: Spring Woodland Kit, matted onto a die cut scallop circle, made from a piece of fabric effect paper. this, along with the sentiment was adhered onto some patterned card i bought from a craft fair, and a strip of ribbon added on top
