We belatedly learned that a friend of ours had lost her son during the summer. It seems a bit late to send a sympathy card, so I made this one to let her know we are thinking of her. I used some DP from my stash, and embossed the mocha piece with my Victoria embossing folder. The Blessings is from a Cheery Lynn die, and the butterflies are punched. Even though the loss of a loved one is a sad occasion, Evelyn shares the belief that we have a glorious life to look forward to. Edited: I should have added that her son was middle aged.
