CAS Sympathy

I think clean and simple is always a good choice for a sympathy card.  But there are certain times when I feel clean and simple is the only choice.  At least for me, it was the only choice today.  All deaths bring sadness and mourning, but the added elements of youth and tragedy render me speechless.  What can be said to truly console the family  — not much at all.  So  I made this card in a crisp white, with a simple design and the reassuring words of Psalm 23.

 

This card is 5.5″ square and will be presented in a 5.5″ Square Clear Box.

JustRite Stamp:  Sympathy Vintage Labels, a cling stamp set

Paper:  Copper Silk (from which the cattails were die cut)
