Good morning....
The time is whizzing by again, we actually had a flurry of snow last week, nothing much really, unlike when I was a kid and we always had lots of snow.
I have a couple of sympathy cards to share today,
Last week my friend from high school lost her beautiful Mum... A lady dear to my heart, who always treated me as one of her own... The first card is for my friend
I have so many wonderful memories of the times I spent over at my friends' house... It was a home always filled with love and laughter
One of the things I remember is how much her Dad teased us when we were going through our teenage years... Our fad diets, dance crazes and the pop groups we adored, not to mention our mini skirts Lol!
So this card is for him... I know he will be lost losing his partner of over 60 years
But he has a loving family to help him through ...
Enjoy your day and be safe

Oh Ros...two such very classy cards...shame they for such a sad occasion but beautiful anyway as always. xx
Two great designs for sympathy cards Ros. The prettily coloured poppies and foliage work beautifully with the ornate frame, and the tree and flying birds with that soft blue and golden light is so effective and elegant with the stitched frame and the extra dry embossed square makes an interesting outer frame. Absolutely gorgeous! x
Two absolutely BEAUTIFUL cards Ros...they will mean the world to your friend and her dad! And deepest sympathies to you too for your loss!
What wonderful and fond memories for you Ros. Both cards are perfect for the sad occasion. Both are so thoughtfully designed.The poppy card is stunning and the second card so gentle and delicate....so very beautiful x
I can see you put your heart into these cards, Ros. The love shows in them. It's a sad day when you lose someone you care for so deeply. Your poppies are incredibly gorgeous in the deep red with contrasting green and white and the beautiful lattice. The way the birds are lifting from the trees on your second card really tugs at my heart strings. Beautiful with the sentiment in gold on vellum. You, your friend, and her father have my most sincere sympathy.
Beautiful cards for the sad occasion. I love how the poppies peep through the trellis. And the effect of ligt through the branches is quite magical.
Ros, I'm so sorry for your loss. She sounds like she was a wonderful Mum! Your cards are gorgeous, I know they will both love and appreciate them.
Ros, they so pretty I am sure they will both be cherished by your friend and her father. I echo Marcia's sympathy to you also.

So sorry for your loss! Such beautiful and thoughtful cards for your friend and her father! Love the gorgeous red flowers on the first card with wonderful die cuts. And, second card is just as lovely and very serene. I'm sure your thoughtful cards will be appreciated! Take care, hugs!!
Sympathy cards are always the hardest to make. These are perfect. The red flower pops against all the white. I love how you put the lattice in the foreground. The second card is beautiful and serene... just what is needed at this time.
So sorry for the loss of your dear friend, Ros. Her DD and DH will so appreciate your cards filled with love. May your memories bring you joy. Love and Hugs, Nancy

What beautiful cards for your friend & her dad, Ros. It's hard loosing all the adults we looked up to as kids. Now we're the old ones! Both cards are artistic & perfect to express your love & sympathy.
So sorry for the loss of your friend's Mum. She and her days will appreciate these thoughtful cards made with so much love.
