Sympathy and Empathy

Sympathy and Empathy

It can be so hard sometimes to know what to say to friends when life takes a downward turn. From serious illnesses to personal loss, we are often in so much shock that we do not know how to react or what to say for the best. We hope our range of sympathy and empathy cards ("empathy cards" is a phrase coined by one of our favourite illustrator/designers Emily McDowell) go some way to helping you expressing the inexpressible.
