In Our Thoughts…

Welcome! Thank you for dropping by. The coffee pot is on, so pour a cup and relax for a few.

Today’s card was designed for a new friend and his family. We wanted them to know that our thoughts and prayers were with them during this difficult time in their lives.

Sympathy cards are the most difficult for me to create. Usually, I stay with a more traditional appearance.

As a rule, when a specialty cards is needed, Jim and I will talk about the style of cards we send. Since I did not feel comfortable with the results of my first, more traditional card, I asked Jim for help.  That was when he suggested that our new friend might appreciate one with my flowers.

Flower – White Foamiran die cut using the Sweet Peony die by Heartfelt Creations. The petals were accented with Gelato’s Pistachio.

Leaves – Light Green, Indian Batik papers from USArtQuest, cut with Sizzix’s Garden Greens die.

Again, thank you for visiting today,

Till later,

May God Bless You, Everyone!
