Zoo Animal Sympathy cards
Feb 9th, 2017, 3:21pm
 
from a shopper ...
 
"I need a unique sympathy card for my fellow zoo workers.  At the zoo when an animal dies I'd like a card with wild/zoo animals on the front, big and small species, to send to the staff when an animal passes. If it could be personalized with the name or kind of animal on the front, that would be awesome!"
 
The shopper will find these cards here:
Occasion >> Sympathy >> Loss of Pet >> Other
 
Note, submissions for this request should be custom front designs only.

sad indeed.
 
I have a question.  I have a number of usable images featuring several different wild zoo animals.  Would it be best to create cards with unique outside and inside verse or can similar wording be used and still be acceptable with the main difference being the outside image?
 
first submission PID 1466776
 
And if allowed, I am going to share my royalties on sales of any of my designs with the zoo where I took my photos as they are allowing me free reign to use my images of their animals without limitation.

Sorry for the delay.  In this case, as long as the animal featured is a different breed of animal you can use the same text across the series.  Hope that is helpful!

Thanks for the congrats! My sale was only 2 cards, but I hope that folks will see notice our new category and order more from the nice array of Zoo Animal Sympathy cards we now have on GCU. Just as I was creating my design, I learned the "Packy" the beloved elephant from the San Diego Zoo, had to be euthanized due to illness. Packy was 55 years old and was well-loved at the Zoo and a friend to millions of visitors since he was born in 1962.
I used Packy's name and birth/death dates as my text example, and I actually found myself teary-eyed as I thought of how much Packy will be missed. It makes me wonder who the animal was for which my card was purchased.
