Card planning in advance

One of the ScrapJazz challenges for August is to make a sympathy card. I'm not good with these. I feel that having them around the place is almost tempting fate. On the other hand, making them when you need them is hard too, both emotionally and the time constraints. I haven't even got any sympathy stamps, so my idea was a very plain card with "thinking of you" on it, which needn't only be for sympathy.

After the Kuching LO, I had some of those rich navys and coppers left over, just begging to be put to good use, so I made a couple.

Here is what I came up with. Nothing fancy, and quite sober colours for me, but suitable I think. I just hope it will be a long time before I have a need for them.
