I made this card and my inspiration was my sweet faithful golden retriever who we had to put to sleep yesterday. Isn't the agony of losing a faithful pet friend as deep as any? I keep going to step over my boy, and he's not there. You were a dear dear friend sweet Luca....and you will never be forgotten. The ache is real. I just can't say Happy Tuesday everyone this week!

I'm so sorry Karen. Our pets become our dearest and most faithful friends. I lost my sweet cat last fall and still look for him. Your card is beautiful and shows all your love for him. Sending hugs.

Oh Karen, I am so sorry for your loss of your beloved and faithful pet! It is so much a real and deep ache of loss when they go. I know you to be a woman of deep faith, so trust that you will see your Luca again. I know it will not stop you from missing him now, but that is a testament of the love you have shared. As always your card is wonderfully beautiful! You have taken colors I did not think would work well together and used them in such a lovely way!

Karen, so sorry for your loss. You are so right, the pain is so real. I know you'll never forget Luca, but I hope you will at some point have room for another furry child.
Thank you for sharing such a lovely card.
