Heartfelt Sympathy

Sympathy cards are never easy to make, when someone has lost a loved one - but I believe a handmade card, and the thoughtfulness and love that goes into making it, becomes a part of the healing process for the person who receives it.

Here is a card made this week, for the family of a special person....and with it, went my prayer for God to comfort them in their grief. 

 

This is another card using the Spellbinders Radiant Rectangles dies. The card base is Stampin' Up! Wisteria Wonder and the sentiment is a retired set from SU, called Close as a Memory. The rose was made using SU Perfect Plum and Wisteria wonder cardstock. There is a tutorial on my blog in the January archives, for creating these roses. The leaves are in SU Pistachio Pudding and were die cut with the Spellbinders Foliage dies.
