Hello...
Autumn is one of the loveliest of seasons, but this year it has brought huge sadness for me.
With little warning my dearest friend and soul sister Beryl, left this world. I held her hand but she couldn't stay...A week has passed by in a fog and this year will not be forgotten for it's losses.
Awhile ago I made this card
The leaves were stamped with alcohol lift ink ... It seems fitting in it's imperfect colourful way
Life isn't perfect and there are many shades of grey, but sometimes, someone special leaves behind the most beautiful colours stamped on your heart...

Lovely card Ros, so delicate and soft!! Sorry for the loss of your friend and BIG hugs to you, it is always so hard to lose someone so special to the heart! I have not been around too much either as we have been at the Lake house worrying about the water levels and erosion. It is what is is I guess and nothing we can do but hope it stops. Since the hubby is retiring the end of the year he has been coming home earlier and earlier each day and it has totally changed my 'lifestyle' lol....I think you no THAT feeling....have a great day my friend!!
What a beautiful card and tribute to your dear friend Beryl. So very, very sorry to hear of your loss...you really have been hit hard this year! Sending many prayers and hugs your way dear friend!
Losing someone close is always hard, Ros and living with a heavy heart is so difficult. I hope memories of all the happy times you shared will bring you comfort until you start to feel better. As always this is such a beautiful card and I love the delicate colours and peacefull feel you achieved.
Consider yourself hugged my friend!

Oh, dear Ros, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss and such a sudden one at that. I hope that means at least that Beryl didn't have to suffer too long. Your card is beautiful and the colors are just perfect.
