Kraft and Yellow Sympathy Card

Kraft and Yellow Sympathy

Unfortunately, Sympathy cards are a fact of life. I decided that they didn’t necessarily have to be bleak . It’s a fine line to bring some color into them and this muted palette of browns and yellows seemed to work.

David Tutera Sympathy

My inspiration for this color combo came from a dimensional sticker from the David Tutera Celebrate It card collection.

I pulled out a coordinating yellow paper from my stash, and used some more of the David Tutera pieces ( pre-embossed brown and tan panels) and some brown Colorbok rub-ons I’d picked up on clearance for $.97.

Covered a blank card with the yellow panel, applied the rub ons, mounted the brown and tan panels, applied a rub on to the Sympathy sticker, embellished with coordinating washi tape and finished with an embossed chip board bird from my stash. Waste not want not, I also used scraps from the embossed brown panel to decorate the card.

Carol this is a gorgeous sympathy card. The muted colors are soothing and yet there is a little cheer to it.

Your cards are absolutely stunning. I think the yellow adds warmth and an undertone of hope to the message. Some sympathy cards are so cold and generic they are depressing. Yours are lovely, perfect.
