A Blog Named Hero Sympathy Challenge

Hi there crafty peeps!

Linda from A Blog Named Hero here with you today to share our latest challenge theme which is...


We all find the need for sympathy cards at the most difficult of times and it’s never an easy thing to make—especially when you’re hurting too, so we thought it would be a smart idea to get a few made so that in those times of sorrow, we have something handmade to offer our loved ones.

Here’s one I made.

I always think simple is best, but it’s up to you. It could be bright and bold, designed to cheer someone up when they most need it!

I used the new From the Vault Flowers as well as a message from Color Layering Dragonfly for this card. I kept it SUPER simple, with just a hint of white gel pen and some gorgeous Hero Hues cardstock - this time Nautical and Sand.

We hope to see the special and thoughtful cards you would make for your friends or family when they’re going through a troubling time.

You’ve got until 5pm July 10th to enter our challenge!

We look forward to seeing what you’ve made.

See you soon!

Linda
