I find sympathy cards SO hard to make and I know I am not alone. But they are so much easier if you have a good sentiment set to work with. The Waffle Flower With Sympathy Sentiment Stamp Set and Dies are just that! I combined them with the Sketched Iris Stamps, Stencil and Dies to create a gold embossed floral card.
You can also color the Sketched Iris set in rather than use the stencil if you prefer.
But sometimes you need a sympathy card without flowers. For a more geometric look I combined the With Sympathy stamps and dies with the Lines Foil Plate, Stencil and Die.
Here you have free reign to use any color combo you like. And I really appreciate all the different sub sentiments available on the With Sympathy set.
I made a whole video about creating these cards in today's video:
