With Sympathy

Good day dear Reader, I hope you are having a great one.

Sadly, I have been making rather too many Sympathy cards recently.  Whether it is because I am getting older or just one of those sad phases when we are losing friends and loved ones from our lives.

Following the CAS (clean and simple) style is how I approach these difficult cards.  Nothing can really help those who are bereaved, but just a note from a friend can let them know they are in our thoughts and maybe ease their pain a tiny bit at a difficult time.

This stamp of three simple flowers and the script style sentiment are perfect stamped in black on a plain white C6 card, clean simple and elegant.  I added touches of clear Spica Glitter Pen to add a very subtle shimmer to the flowers and the dots added after the sentiment, then considered it finished.

Thanks for stopping by, I feel honoured that the number of my Followers keeps increasing, thank you all so much, I really appreciate you all.
