Sympathy Cards (for my cousins)

The last Aunt in the Romero family passed away recently at the age of 93.

Ironically, or perhaps God has a reason,

my Uncle (her husband & brother of my father) was the very first to pass away in the family.

I wanted to send handmade cards to my first cousins, her daughters.

I chose Prima's Lavender paper & sticker collection.

I mounted the stickers onto chipboard to give them dimension.

I did the same with the card cut outs I made of the butterflies.

All were then layered to decorate the front of each card.

I used Wild Orchid Crafts' coordinating purple toned roses.

To complete the cards, I added Want2Scrap flat back adhesive pearls in Lavender color.

The inside of the cards is very simple.

I typed my sympathy note on light lavender cardstock and then made a pretty die cut.

To make it pop, I added a square piece behind it in the same paper as the front of the card.

Thanks for dropping by! 

I've been busy creating a number of things & will have more to show in the near future.

Have a great week,

Lisa
