Sympathy

An uncle of mine passed away last Wednesday, and this is the card I made to send to my aunt...it will probably take about 3 weeks to get to her, so I wanted to find words that spoke comfort and encouragement. I thought this verse from Our Daily Bread design's Peace set was perfect.

The rose image is from Impression Obsession - it's new to me and I love the versatility of large floral images. The base color of the image is done with Neopiko markers, and I shaded in the deeper colors with Prismacolor pencils.

  1. Dina, it's a gorgeous card. I'm sure that it will bring comfort to your aunt. I'm sorry for your loss. It's hard to be many miles away during difficult times like this.

  5. hi Dina,
    Thank you so much for making such a beautiful card for Mom. I'm actually glad it will come later so she can truly appreciate it when things are a little quieter. It was wonderful to have your mom and dad at the service. They are special people and much loved.
