I'm posting a little late tonight. I had a ton of things going on today that I NEEDED to finish up before I could go down in my workroom and make a card.
My uncle died on the 2nd and I wanted to send my aunt a Sympathy card.
I find masculine cards are difficult enough but to make a masculine Sympathy card was quite a challenge too. I figured I'd stick with blues. Flowers.... well, it was the only sympathy set I had. Plus a car or train hardly seemed appropriate. Had REALLY he been heavily into cars or trains it may have worked. SO I stuck with what I had and came up with a fairly masculine card.
And to keep up with the mess down here I am going to put a few of the things I used away but not all of them. I have much better things to do with my time!!! That is the whole key to my messes. I've got better things to do than to clean up each time I stamp. SO I put away what I used plus a couple of other things I know I'm done with and I think I'm doing pretty darn good!!! LOL
Thank you SO much for visiting,
Wanda

This is lovely, and I think since the recipient is female (your aunt) it is entirely appropriate! So sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteMay God bless you and your family. Your sympathy card was elegant and I'm sure your aunt will love it.
ReplyDeleteWanda,
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry for the loss of your uncle, but I must tell you that your card if lovely. I too struggle with masculine cards. I can't seem to find anything that I like so I usually end up purchasing one. This card is beautiful and not too feminine and perfect for a man.
Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteI find masculine sympathy cards to be a challenge as well, but this is a beautiful one.
