Kitty Sympathy

I have noticed that the stamping world has newly acknowledged sympathy sentiments other than the usual ones are sometimes needed. I’ve seen a special set for babies (awww) and now this set for pets.cat sympathy
This card is pretty simple. The kitty was coloured with Copics and if you are wondering why the panel he is stamped on looks a bit uneven, it was white so I sponged it very lightly with Antique Linen Distress ink.

In case you were wondering, no, I not all better yet but on my way and even though I still feel yucky, I am working on my craft show. I am busy looking for card displays (know of anywhere great?) and packaging all my cards. I’ve made more 5x7 than I would have guessed, the only size for which I didn’t buy clear bags for packaging. GRR! Boy that packaging sure adds up. 23c for the 6.25” square envies and almost that much for the clear bags. Adds a lot to the cost right there!

Enjoy, Rebecca

This is nice. The pet stores only have two or three sympathy cards, and I'm always worried I've sent the person the same card in the past, so new options are always welcome!
