Sympathy Card


I had some very bad news yesterday when I was told that my brothers, mother in law had died. My brother John and his now wife Jo grew up together and were friends for donkeys years before finally getting thier acts together and of course my Mum and Jo`s Mum, June were friends too. I realised that I had known June for 40 years although I didn`t see her often. I always remember her smiling. She had a wicked sense of humour and if she wasn`t smiling, she was laughing. My heart goes out to Jo and her sister Lynne and of course my little bro John. The world has lost a special lady.

I`m quite pleased with the way this card has turned out. Maybe it`s because its so personal and I spent alot of time on it. Once again appologies for my photography.
The papers are Papermania Christmas papers but I love the damask pattern and  its definately not just for Christmas.
The sentiment is computer generated and cut out with an oval nestie.
I added some ribbon and a bow and some flat backed pearls
Thanks for looking
