When I create a sympathy card I always include a butterfly.
To me, butterflies are very symbolic. They signify a beautiful journey, new beginnings, and time.
I always try to keep a sympathy card clean, and uncluttered.
As for colors, I like to cheer someone up a bit, so I stay away from using all black.
A little understated sparkle doesn't hurt either.
As you can see this set is very versatile! I was able to very easily incorporate another sentiment, for a totally new look, using the same layout!
