Sadly my Mum in Law's brother passed away last night so I had to make a card to send to his wife. Had to have a bit of bling even on a sympathy card! Think I'll make one for my MIL too, if I do i'll add it later :)
The card for my MIL as promised! I couldn't get a very good picture
Just had to make this for a family member on the in-laws side:

Hi I'm new to posting my creations so I hope I'm doing it right.
I had to make two cards for my SIL and his family and came up with these.
:thanks:

Nat / Caz - lovely cards.
Beautiful cards!!
Mystic Nat - Can I just say a big thank you! I've had to make a very sad and difficult Sympathy card tonight and was really struggling. Your card provided some much needed inspiration and I managed to make a half decent card through my tears. I hope you don't mind that I 'scraplifted' your card!
Here's a picture of what I made! Thanks for the inspiration. I used BG Scarlett's Letter papers and I think they worked really well!
It's a lovely card. :) I really struggle with making sympathy cards, so I'm glad what I managed to make inspired you. They are the most difficult cards to sit down and make aren't they? :(
They are sooo difficult to make! Thanks again for the inspiration. The funeral was last Monday and both the widow and the two sons both made an effort to come and thank me for the handmade card. They said it was nice to recieve something that had really been thought about rather than just bought. I was glad that I went to the trouble... but I couldn't have done it without your inspiration!!
I am new - what is MIL please?
I agree with that - iusually resort to faded flowers.
MIL is mother in law.
Just been browsing for some inspiaration as I need to make a sympathy card and as others have said find them so difficult. Think I'll go with black and white.
Beautiful cards, I think Sympathy Cards are some of the most difficult to make. Love the inspiration :)
I wondered if these pictures of some I have made will help with ideas for folk.
Hope these will help somebody.
The thing is - I have had SO much inspiration from the people on this site - you are a wonderful bunch!
Beautiful cards and great inspiration for one of those really hard to make cards, thank you x
