One of my least favorite cards to make are sympathy cards. I think it's so hard to find the balance between somber and uplifting. I want my cards uplift the person reading them - reminding them of the good times and happy memories, while being somber/respectful of what they are going through.
My wonderful Mom In Law has lost so many people this past year. We lost our Dad In Law a little over a year ago, then two Aunts, a cousin and now she just lost her best friend of over 65 years. Every time it gets harder and harder to find the right thing to say. :(
The inspiration for this card comes from the talented Graciellie Designs, another amazing card maker!
