Hi today at The Rubber Buggy I am sharing some Sympathy cards. There are some fabulous dies out there that help make sympathy cards soft, elegant but send the reciever some heart felt wishes during this trying time.

For stamping I use Mini Misti and Tim Holz Distress inks. My favourite glue is beacon 3-in-1 for small and large pieces. (there is a nack to drawing a fine line with this glue .. practice makes it easier so keep trying) 

When doing these type of cards pick soft colours, use some layers, pick soft accents (flowers, butterflies, birds etc) and keep them simple and elegant.

To start this page I used a circle from blue striped print paper to anchor the proposed photo section. I fussy cut around the butterfies and flowers to base it behind so I could then fussy cut duplicate pieces to pop up for 3D accents

In this section you can see all the perfect circles pulling the amazing photos together.
