Thanks so much for visiting my blog today. Please let me know if you have questions about this card or other projects. I’m happy to help.
I’m thinking many of you feel the same way about sympathy cards; they are difficult to create. Yet, I believe they provide a lot of comfort to those who receive them.
In today’s post, I share step-by-step directions for creating this simple sympathy card. I use Stampin’ Up!’s Beautiful Butterfly Bundle, one of the hybrid embossing folder offerings. It debuted in the spring catalog. And, good news, it’s still available. (Please note: It’s been a popular item so it goes in and out of inventory. Keep checking the store. Or, let me know so I can keep an eye on it for you.)
