WT782 ~ Sympathy Cards

[Shoe Girl]

Lisa here your hostess for this weeks Ways to Use It challenge.
Recently I had a run on sympathy cards and when you need them quickly they can be just too hard to put together. So I have decided to add a few to my stash.

Today's challenge, create a sympathy card.

Here is a link to our gallery: Sympathy Cards
Here is my sample: Heartfelt Sympathy

If you're not sure how to add a link, here's how:
1. Open 2 windows or tabs: one for your card in the gallery, and one for this thread
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Go to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
We have wonderful cards this week from the very creative team. Please see Carla's and Sabrina's terrific cards.

Here are mine:

WT782 Bordered Sympathy

Funny, because a friend and I were just talking yesterday about how hard sympathy cards can be to make. My SIL requested 9 back in Feb, so I made 4 each of 3 designs and kept the extra ones, and saved this to upload today.

Always good to have this type of cards in one's stash. These are sad occurrences that are usually not predictable. Thanks, Lisa.

Very timely and helpful challenge - I needed one, but I made four so I shouldn't have to make any more for a little while.

Thanks so much for this challenge. I thought I would have had a card made sooner but time did not permit. Today I needed a sympathy card and remembered your challenge. Here's mine: With Sympathy.

I am playing Challenge cardmaking, and hopefully, doing some catching up, as well.

This is a sympathy card for an SCS cardmaking friend whose Mom passed away in late February.
