Sympathy Cards with the In Remembrance Card Making Kit- Made Easy
Hi Griffinites,
We know that sympathy cards are sometimes hard to create, but we have made it easy with the In Remembrance Card Making Kit. For the times that you need a heartfelt card to bring comforting words, you will love having this card kit on hand. Everything you need to make 20 sympathy and thinking of you cards is inside the box. From the beautiful, whisper quiet palette to the card bases, caring sentiments and floral embellishments, you will appreciate how easily everything works together. If you don’t have this kit, you can get it on sale on our website this week. If you do have it, get yours out and come make this card with us!
Let’s get started.
The In Remembrance Card Making Kit doesn’t require anything except what’s inside, but you can add a little extra by visiting your craft room’s dies. Here we diecut a piece of peach cardstock from our Perfect Palette 6 x 8 Cardstock with the Mini Frame Dies.
Start with one of the peach card bases from the card kit.
Next, add a layer cut with the shadow layer from the Mini Frame Dies.
Then add the intricate layer that we cut first with foam adhesive.
Add one of the included floral layers on top of the diecut layers.
Next a sentiment is added from the card kit with foam adhesive for height.
Then, add the corresponding floral sticker for dimension and vellum fronds for texture.
Finish your card with a final flower to polish your card in a way that’s simply beautiful.
Now, you have a gorgeous card that will comfort, encourage and send your heartfelt sentiments.
Add tear tape to the front of a sentiment insert of your choice and slide it into your card.
Your card is ready to send!
What’s great about the In Remembrance Card Making Kit is that you don’t need anything other than the kit to make 20 incredible cards. It’s all inside and we want to give you a few composition ideas using just the kit!
This pretty pink card uses roses to surround the sentiment and vellum flourishes in the corners.
Here purple and white flowers create lovely movement while vellum fronds peek out from the layers.
Elaborate corners highlight the message of this card.
Concentrate your embellishments on one side like this peaceful, peach card.
Collage your flowers and flourishes at the top and bottom of your cards for a beautiful effect.
We know that the In Remembrance Card Making Kit will be a vital addition to your craft room. It’s a great thing to have on hand for times that you need to let others know that you are thinking of them and that they are in your heart.

They are all lovely.
Sympathy cards are the hardest ones to make, but they are the most important card you can send. Your kit has given us an easy way to show our love and support during life’s difficult times.
These are so lovely. Such soft colors.
Stunning card it is so beautiful, this card would brighten the day when they are going through a difficult time in their life. Anna you are always thinking of all the things we would need to be good crafters. Thank you so much Anna for being here for us.
I bought this kit and I love it. I finished making all 20 cards in the kit. I love the pretty card layers and and matching flower stickers. Can’t get enough of them. I wish I can purchase the card layers and the floral Stickers separately.
Oh how gorgeous. This kit is inspirational and so very thoughtful. Thank you for making this kit so easy to use and novice friendly 🙂
This kit makes beautiful cards and what’s really special are the sentiments for both the front and inside of the card. The peach card and lavender are really so soft and seem to hit the right note for those occasions. I just learned of someone who is in hospice now, and am praying I don’t need to make one of these cards. If so, Anna’s products will help me.
These cards touch my soul and make my heart lighter. I had been sending them to my friends in their times of trouble then my sweet lil 96 year old Mama passed away. Many friends told me that they wanted to send me a card as lovely and thoughtful as the one they received from me but they could not find on in the stores. They are as unique as my Mama was.
These are beautiful cards! They will be so elegant and the designs will create wonderful cards to send to friends and family, as well as colleagues.
Thanks to you and your team for all these examples of designs you create.
I bought this kit. It was so beautiful I did something I never do. I made all the cards at one time–I just couldn’t stop making them. This is one of the best kits ever.
That is a wonderful set to have.
These beautiful cards tug at the heart.
Wow Anna, these sympathy cards are just perfect!!! Couldn’t be any kinder.
After I got this kit, I ordered more because there were so many people we knew who passed, and I really like that the collage of flowers are already prepared. Thanks for designing this kit for us, Anna.
Anna, the need to send a sympathy message always seems to come when you don’t have a lot of time to create a new card. This Sympathy Card set fits the bill to get a beautiful message out quickly. Thank you for putting this one together.
Thank you for demonstrating use of these cards. I have been using the slimline cards. This gives me variety in my card making.
Lovely cards with beautiful sentiments. So nice to have on hand. Thank you Anna for making this occasion less stressful.
Thank you for making this beautiful Remembrance Card Kit. I have needed this kit for so long and mine just arrived today. The colors are so pretty and to suggest adding frame layers just adds so much to this kit.
Thank you Anna and team for making this kit… We lost several family & friends this past few years and every card we received was a blessing.
I know some don’t send tho because they just don’t know what to say and that is so sad! You just don’t realize how just a heartfelt message can help a grieving person…. Yes sometimes we just don’t know what to say but saying NOTHING is worse.
So now no excuse with Annas thoughtful and caring kit! 💗💔❤️ Thank You Anna !
What a lovely sympathy card package!
Happy to send this off to friends and family who have suffered a loss.
Thanks to you and your team
Lovely and very thoughtful card kit for life’s difficult moments. Thank you, Anna.

A beautiful card, I can not wait to receive my kit.
Thank you
I have this kit and love it. I even used it.
Beautiful cards and sentiments. Thank you Anna 😊
I just love this beautiful kit!
Anna I can not wait for the EASTER EGGS show on AGTV!!! So looking forward to this one. Need all the help i can get. Also with Friends Who Love ANNA GRIFFIN Group. They have really good crafters in this group. With you and friends i will get some really good ideas. Thanks for the AGTV. I have the in Remembrance Card Making Kit. I am Praying i do not have to use it for a long time.
The perfect kit for sending the right message
So incredibly beautiful♥️
Beautiful cards!! I have the slimline cards. They make very pretty cards.
Those are the most beautiful cards I have ever
Beautiful cards!!
I just love this kit! It is so very pretty with beautiful sentiments. Thank you Anna for giving us the right words say when we can’t find them.
I have this and it has come in handy with unexpected family and friends to send comfort.
Beautiful cards, Anna. Even though we’ve lost loved ones, those words are very hard to put down. I just sent a card to my cousin that just lost her son. Sure wish I had your kit, before I sent her the card. But with your dies and papers, I was able to send one to her yesterday. Thank you Anna for the inspiration that you give us.
The sympathy card kit is a must on every crafter’s shelf. I have the slim line sympathy kit and it has been a lifesaver in expressing caring thoughts. Each card is beautiful and so appreciated by family and friends.
I have this kit and it makes beautiful, meaningful cards. Thank you for this kit.
Beautiful cards and the sentiments make the cards so meaningful to send. I was never good at expressing my feelings so thank you.
I love this kit. The first 2 cards I made, I wanted a little more masculine so I used the vellum down the sides and just one small floral at the bottom. The recipients said the cards really were beautiful and showed how much I cared. Thanks again Anna.
This Kit is wonderful. Always a challenge to capture the right thought when experiencing grief.
Would also love to see an Anniversary card kit.
Having a card ministry, I find I make more of Get Well and Sympathy cards than anything else. I purchased the Slimline Sympathy card kit some time ago and am almost out. It would really help my budget to receive the Remembrance card kit. Stamps and supplies can become a major expense quickly!
When making cards, I pray for each recipient and their family. They always remark on the beauty of the cards when I use Anna’s products.
Thank you so much for all you do in helping to lift the spirits of the bereaved, sick, and to otherwise brighten the days of others through your beautiful paper crafts. God bless
The hardest moments in life, when words are so difficult to say and to listen to. When crafting a thoughtful card is not that easy, well this kit makes the difference. Beautiful!
Beautiful card & kit
One of my favorites
Beautiful cards and love the sentiments.
Good Morning… This kit is now my fav (top of my list). It is beautiful, easy to use, quick and I don’t have to sit and go thru several boxes/drawers to match up toppers, flowers. Not only that, they make stunning cards and the sentiments give comfort/peace before you even open to read the verse. I hope this set stays around because it is one that will be needed. I’ve made several from the kit for friends/mbrs of my church to give to others and they have all said how the cards have blessed them and they families they gave the cards to. Again, Anna (team mbrs) thank you so much for the wonderful products that touch so many. Have a blessed day/rest of the week.
What an absolutely beautiful and detailed guide to making an exquisitely tasteful in remembrance card….well done!
This is such a lovely set of cards. Unfortunately, I have had to send too many of these Sympathy cards out in the past few years.
Such lovely thoughts for people going through that difficult time. ❤️
I really like the idea of some embellishments on layers. That’s such a smart idea. Thank you.
Beautifully stunning cards, Anna! We certainly don’t like to have to send sympathies; but, it is nice to have the cards ready when we need them. Thank you for the ease and simplicity in conveying our heartfelt condolences. ♥️
Thank you for showing the components of this beautiful kit. Will make beautiful sympathy cards with little effort.
LOVE the Prefect palette colors and the smaller flowers are just right.
