With Sympathy

I have needed  three sympathy cards this past two weeks. It has been a rocky time around here and I haven't made a dent in Christmas cards. This is the card I made using a CAS from Kristina Werner.  I went ahead and made two. I need to just make a stash of birthday, get well, sympathy and thinking of you cards to have on hand. I always make a card for each person when it's needed and that's not a good idea in the middle of holidays. I will make a different one for my daughter in law. Her mother just passed last week.

This was using Simon Says stamp Garden Greetings embossed in gold. Then I just sponged a bit of color around the gold. 




Be kind to one another.

So sorry for the losses. It is especially hard around the holidays. Your card is so pretty and elegant. I am sure it will bring comfort. Sympathy cards are ones I especially keep in stock because it is difficult to do when needed.

I'm so sorry to hear this news Brenda. I know it's been like that here too, not sure if I just notice it more that I'm older or if it is just more people passing than normal. I just sorry you have needed sympathy cards. This one is just beautiful though. I love the color combo, so elegant looking. Hugs, Brenda
