I have used different shades of purple card, stamps from the Our Daily Bread designs 2009 and an unmounted Stamp it Set. Sharing in your sorrow from Stampin Up set. Butterflies embossing folder, ribbon, flowers and brads.
I used the butterflies on my cards as when my father died my 3 eldest grand daughters were only little and I used the butterfly as an example. As a caterpillar dies a beautiful butterfly flies up into the sky. When we die our body dies but our spirit flies up to heaven.

Lovely sentiments and butterflies. Thanks for joining in at Lollipop Ladies with your sympathy cards is purple!
Purple works so well for sympathy cards. I hope these are for your stash and you haven't suffered so many loses recently. Thanks for playing at The Lollipop Ladies!
Thank you Lauren. They were all sent out. There have been four deaths over the last week. Not our family but friends or friends family. Two older people and two younger than I am who lost their battle with cancer.
Thank you Susan

Lilac is a much softer option for Sympathy cards ,black can be a bit stark.They are all simple but sensitive to the situation.Thanks for playing along at TLL.

It is such an emotional time when we loose loved ones, but isn't it lovely that you have used your talent and skills to create such beautiful cards to remind people you love them :) Margaret, they are all lovely but I especially love the last one with the butterfly.
