I have a very special friend who lost a very special someone in her life recently. I knew I had to acknowledge her loss and send her something to cheer her a bit at the same time. I'm not good with sympathy cards - loss is just so sad and it's hard to put that on paper...especially when it has to travel thousands of miles when really I'd rather just give her a huge hug and tell her that I love her and hope she can find some peace in all this. Heidi's card sketch over at Skipping Stones Design did inspire me a bit though and I love how the card turned out - elegant and full of love.

The sentiment on the front reads "In Heaven, there is no fairer thing than love..." I hope it brings her peace knowing that her special someone is surrounded by love and watching over her from Heaven.
