It's Sunday morning and it's Featured Stamper Day here on SCS. Today's honoree is Cary AKA Miss Minx. She has such an awesome gallery. I've seen several that I want to CASE today. I chose this card:
Unfortunately one of our church members passed this week and I need a sympathy card for his folks. He was a special needs person and was only in his early 50s. The entire congregation will miss him very much. So this is for Randy.

I'm so sorry you needed this card, Tina, especially for this family. But this is such a beautiful sympathy card in the deep, deep blue with that extra special touch of the cross - the pearls and the ribbon are lovely touches too!

It is never fun to have to make sympathy cards and I am so sorry you needed this one. It is beautiful-love the contrast of the blue and white-and will certainly express your caring and love very well.

Oh! Oh!! I love this so much that I just sat here several minutes staring at it and thinking that when you hear that something is so beautiful it almost hurts, THIS is what they're talking about. The blue, the perfect touch of the small pearls, the cross and that ribbon...just so beautiful!! Sorry..not my usual over the top self but it's truly astonishing. Hugs, sistah!

I'm so sorry for your need to make a sympathy card ~ your blue and white together are lovely and speak of comfort and elegance to me. And of course the cross is it's own source of comfort for which your charm is a wonderful reminder

So sorry for your loss, Tina. Beautiful embossed image with pearls to add to the elegance! Dark blue and white are such a classic combo and always look great together! Perfect~
