Masculine Sympathy card

Sympathy in plaid

Sympathy cards can be hard to make, I think masculine sympathy cards are even harder to make. I often rely on floral images for my sympathy cards which is not a match for a masculine sympathy card. I used one of the new plaids in the Country Club Designer Series paper pack.

Card Base: Cut Night of Navy 8 ½ X 11 paper in half width wise. You now have two pieces 8 ½ X 5 ½ . Fold one of the pieces in half lengthwise for your card front. The card front now measures 4 ¼ X 5 ½.
