Butterfly Sympathy

Like many other stampers, I have a hard time making sympathy cards. It's so hard to make them with a heavy heart. I should make a few one of these days just to have on hand when needed. Think I'll wait for a bright sunny day to work on them.

This card is for my friend, Patti's, husband. Though I've never met him, I wanted to extend my condolences on the loss of his mother. I didn't want the flowers to stand out too much, instead I wanted the butterflies to be prominent.
