Default A wonderful comment I received about a card

A co-worker recently lost her mom. I don't know this co-worker all that well, though I've worked with her on occasion. I mailed this card to her home: Simple sympathy card by stamper1996 at Splitcoaststampers

Today, she stopped by to tell me how much that card meant to her. She even cried as she told me this.

It's wonderful to know that such a small gesture touched someone like that. You just never know what a card might do!

It is a lovely card and the wonderful thing about this hobby of ours. We get to enjoy our creations twice--once while we're making them, and again when the recipient shows such appreciation. I'm glad you were able to touch her at this difficult time!

Your card is beautiful--and how kind you were to remember her at such a difficult time with such a thoughtful card.

So many people don't know what to say, and then say nothing. A card like yours is all the more appreciated then.

It's a beautiful card and the sentiment is perfect for the loss of a loved one.

Your card is beautiful and your post is a good one. It reminds me to MAIL OUT these creations of ours. See how it has touched someone when they really needed it. Thanks for sharing your story and your card.

Random Acts Of Kindness reward us more than we know, something your co-worker will not forget but at some point in time, she will pay it forward to someone else who needs, a Random Act of Kindness.

Thank you for the nice comments, everyone. I honestly wasn't soliciting comments on my card! I only wanted to share a touching moment that a handmade card made happen.
