Pressed Flowers Sympathy Card
June 05, 2018
Today's card features the new Stampin' Rewards set (free with $150 or more order). The stamp set is called Pressed Flowers and it caught my eye right away.
Tomorrow I'll be attending my Great Aunt Ann's funeral. She lived to be 98 years old (almost 99). She always had a great disposition and lots of energy. She proudly served both her community (up until a few years ago) & country when she was younger. She lived a good life!
I enjoyed making this card for her family while I recalled sweet memories of her. The card is so much better in real life. My camera was having a hard time capturing the colors. But I know she would have liked the card.
