CAS(E) this Sketch #156

Today I'm sharing a sympathy card that I made using the current sketch from CAS(E) this Sketch.







For this card I used Papertrey Ink's Life stamp set for my main panel.  The ink colors are Wplus9 Cockleshell, Little Piggy, and Beanstalk.  The sentiment is stamped on PTI Soft Stone card stock, embossed in white, using Winnie & Walter's A Tree for All Season's stamp set.

I've had to make several sympathy cards this week, all for tragic situations where men died much too young and left behind wives and small children.  It fills my heart with pain for those families, and extreme gratitude for all that I've been blessed with.  Hug your families today and tell them that you love them, for none of us are promised a tomorrow.
