One week ago, there was a horrible gas explosion in my home town. Yesterday one of the injured men, a 43-year-old father of little twins, finally died by his burnings. He was a passionate sailor and a sailing buddy to one of my neighbours. So my neighbour asked me to create a sympathy card with a sailing theme.
I used this wonderful old Stamps Happen stamp, but cut away the sentiment. I watercolored it with shades of grey and black, added the sentiment ("With heartfelt sympathy") and a ribbon.

Oh Christiane, how wonderfully gorgeous this card is. Your work is beyond reproach when it comes to creativity, execution and vision. Your card is sure to touch the heart/s of the recepient/s. Such a sad situation. I trust you card will bring comfort to those so in need during a very sad time. This is really worthy of being framed.
