Sympathy cards

At last, I've done a few sympathy cards. I always feel that these should be kept simple and I often opt for a couple of lilies on a background, but today I've abandoned lilies and used other flowers.

The background for the first two cards is a lovely embossed paper by K & Co BW which doesn't need much added to it.




This background is BG, with the picture printed on to linen card to give a slightly watercoloured effect:
The background for this one is Anna Griffin:

And the red paper backing the roses here is BG, surrounded by a piece of K & Co Brookfield:


and lastly, a very simple one:


They all have inserts that say 'with deepest sympathy'.

  1. These are lovely Hazel, not too overstated, but with a sense of elegance.

  5. These are so nice Hazel. I avoid lillies on purpose when I'm looking for a sympathy card! Yours are beautiful. xx
