Thanks for Playing in Paradise! I never have sympathy cards on hand when I need them, either.

Sympathy cards are so hard - I say that every single time. One thing I found helpful is to make more than one at a time. Somehow getting in the right frame of mind to do one helps with the next one. I really love the colours of this card, and the off-set die cuts around the flowers. And guess what? I'm YOUR newest follower too ;) Thanks so much for playing along in my first Playing in Paradise challenge, Debbie!

Lovely card, Debbie. Simply perfect colors, dp and image for a Sympathy card.

Thanks for your prayers. Also NO purple is NOT my favorite color but I always associate Easter and Spring with the color purple. Can't remember the religious connotation of purple!?

Hi Debbie! Thanks for stopping by my blog today, and for your kind encouraging words. I really need that this evening when I returned home from the funeral, so thank you so much, my friend.
Also, I hope you can link up this LOVELY card at Word Art Wednesday. We're also so blessed to have you play along!
Have a great week, and chat with you soon.
Hugs,
Karen L
