With Sympathy

I am sharing a card with you that I made for one of my husband's coworkers.  His son just passed away Friday from Cancer on his spine and brain.  It is always so much harder when we lose a precious child in this world who has not even had a chance to live.  He was only 7 years old.


I did keep it pretty simple so it fit into an envelope and was easy to mail from work.  I popped the center Petite Oval die up with pop dots off the Labels 18 Spellbinder's die.  I love the new Sympathy set from Flourishes called Calla Lilies.  The sentiments are amazing and PERFECT!


The sentiment I stamped inside is the one on the bottom right...Wishing you hope...


I used a sketch from  Pals Paper Arts it is a great sketch for what I needed.

BTW...I have been working soo much lately and have not had much time to visit my wonderful blog friends.  I do apologize.  I am off for a week to spend some time with my son during his Spring Break and to do a lot of catching up.  I will be around soon.

Thanks so much for stopping by,
Heather
