Sympathy and Prayers

Good morning - last week I needed to make one of the hardest cards there are to make - especially when it is for someone you know, a sympathy card. A wonderful man we knew in Wyoming lost his battle with cancer. He lived an amazing testimony - loved the Lord with all his heart, and shared that with all those around him, and there is great comfort in knowing he is with the Lord now - but still hard to grieve his loss here. I didn't have a card made to send to his family, so I sat down and put this together:

I usually feel that simple is best for Sympathy cards - and that is exactly what worked on this card. Pretty pattern paper, a perfect sentiment from Unity Stamp Company, and minimal embellishments.

Here are links to the supplies I used, in case you're interested. Thanks for stopping by - and farewell Charles - until we meet again! I am so grateful we had the chance to know you!
