With Heartfelt Sympathy


Happy Monday my friends.  I'm happy to be off work this week as the boys are off on spring break. As this post goes live we are at our first college visit with Ryan visiting Belmont in Nashville. Time is certainly flying. This time next year I'll be sending out graduation announcements.

This card was made a few weeks ago for a co-worker who lost her mom to a long term illness. The card was inspired by Michele's beautiful MUSE card, but I never got to posting it.  Hoping to get lots of time this week to create and get back to a little bit more regular posting schedule!

Beautiful card! Enjoy your week! Wow, college! Scary how close it's getting (my son is a year behind yours I think, so I guess I'll be doing that next year!)

By now you're home I'd bet... I hope Belmont is everything Ryan's looking for - and it's not too far away =] Your card is really beautiful and I just know your co-worker loved it, as well, Lynn. How thoughtful...

Lynn what a beautiful sympathy card, the twine is perfect. I am sure that is will bring comfort to your co-worker. I hope that Ryan gets a good feeling about what Belmont is all about. I know it is so exciting for them! Hard to believe that I was there a year ago and now we are making a final decision! Enjoy your time off, you deserve it I know how hard you have been working!

Lovely sympathy card, Lynn. Kids do seem to grow up fast. My triplet grands are the same age as Ryan. It seems like just yesterday I was helping to take care of them.
