I dislike making Sympathy cards when I need them and prefer to make a few and keep them in my card box. This card uses one of my favourite butterfly stamps and a lovely sentiment.

To make this card I used:
C6 white matt card blank
Uniko 'English Country Garden Butterflies' stamp and coordinating die
Practical Publishing 'Stamps for All Occasions' sentiment stamp
Verafine Imperial Purple ink
Cosmic Shimmer Clear Detail embossing powder
Copics - BV02, G00 & E51
I stamped the butterfly with purple ink and embossed it with clear embossing powder before cutting it with the coordinating die. I put the card blank into my MISTI and placed the butterfly onto it so I could see where to place the sentiment. I removed the butterfly and stamped the sentiment with purple ink before embossing it with clear embossing powder. I attached the butterfly body to the card with glue and put small foam pads under the wings to hold them away from the card.
