I really got down to it and finished organizing all the cards that I have in my stash to make them easier to locate in the moment and in doing so I realized that I didn't really have any sympathy cards. Like any at all. So I decided to make one up today just so I'm ready in case if I need to be.
I don't make many sympathy cards because I've been fortunate enough to not need them that often, so I was extra careful to make sure that I didn't make it too "loud" or "crazy" like some of my other endeavors can end up.
I'm really glad that I was able to find this nice sentiment stamp at Tuesday Morning not too long ago as well. It's nice and simple which means it can be used on a lot of different style cards.

This might be my favorite Christmas in July card so far. I really like the color scheme I ended up going with and the stamp set is one that I've always admired from afar. Luckily for me my mom owns it so that means I get to play with it!
I'm really liking the fact that most of these cards I've been making are really easy to replicate. It gives me a little peace of mind knowing that if it comes down to it, I can crank out extras pretty quickly. I usually try to send all different cards to people (mostly because I don't always have the patience to mass produce a design) but if any of these have to be repeated I really don't think I'll feel all that bad about it.
