A friend of mine lost her Mum so I wanted to make her a sympathy card. Her Mum was 96 and had a fall so was taken into hospital. Unfortunately after being in there for a little while with arrangements made for her to go home with 24 hour care she died in hospital.
I think sympathy cards should be kept fairly simple and I wanted to make a personalised card for my friend. She loves nature and helps to rescue hedgehogs so I made a simple wreath card and added a hedgie to the bottom. The sentiment is Inkylicious.
I ordered some more stamps, stencils and inks from Card-io after seeing so many lovely cards on theor Facebook group. I haven't had time to use them yet though. I have been busy sewing, chores and sorting out my stuff ready for my next craft fair on Saturday.
Yesterday we had a trip out for back massages and lunch and today we are visiting my Mum, going our for lunch and then food shopping.
