SASC119 ~ So Sorry ~

Our very dear friends father passed away on the weekend and I needed a sympathy card for them. This was so hard to create for our friends, but I do know that they are covered in prayers and finding comfort in God's wonderful presence during this difficult time. I really do need to create several sympathy cards so that they are on hand when they are needed ~ creating a card when it's needed is just too difficult for me.  I followed a sketch that I found on Stampin' Addicts


Here is my card that I created ~ I did enjoy playing with my new toys....just really hard when you know who will be receiving it ~


I forgot to take my photo during the sunny portion of the day ~ and so please overlook the
terrible shots that I've posted!


I'd like to end on a brighter note ~ so here are a few shots that we took on our weekend away with our son's beautiful family!





Thanks so much for stopping by today ~ enjoy your day ~ and hug your loved ones....better yet....tell them that you love them and then.... a big bear hug! Blessings to you :-)

If you live in Winnipeg or the vicinity and would like to host a party I would love to come and stamp with you and your friends!! Or, if space is an issue, come here and create with me at one of my many clubs or classes! Drop me a line for further info! I'd love to meet you! Enjoy your day!

    This is a beautiful sympathy card my friend and I know they were comforted by it. I hear you about having them ready ahead of time instead of right when they are needed - always harder to do.
    Love the pictures of "the brothers".

Hello friends and I want to wish you a Blessed Happy New Year!!!  A year filled with love, hope and peace!!! And I want to welcome you here, to the first Technique Tuesday of the year.  The call for this Technique is using the Brayer!  Oh boy, I haven't used my Brayer in years...so here we go!! Did you see this new Embossing Folder?  It's from the new Adoring Hearts Bundle and wow!!! what a Bundle this is, we have the Stamp Set, Embossing Hybrid Folder, and the Dies, that work with the Embossing Folder.  So whenever you have an Embossing Folder, that is Hybrid, well, that means you Die Cut and Emboss at the same time...Easy Peasy and AMAZING!!!
