Sympathy cards are certainly not fun to make but I like to have at least a couple on hand for when I need it. Gina's new Assorted Greetings, Free with 3 is the perfect set for so many occasions! I have a hard time with these types of cards but I wanted to keep it real simple.
This card was fun to make and color!! Our family loves to camp and has spent a fair amount of time doing so!! When I first saw this set I knew I wanted to create a scene. I'm not very good at it but I love trying!! I thought this would be a fun card to give to hubs just because!!
