Last week I made a pet sympathy card for a family member who had to say goodbye to their four-legged friend. I wanted to send a sympathy card to let her know I was so sorry to hear the news and I was thinking of her. I have a Pet Sympathy stamp set by Papertrey Ink and a Pet Charms die set by My Favorite things that I used to make this card. I hope the card brought a little bit of comfort. I know how hard it is to say goodbye to a beloved pet and member of the family.
Who is Loretta? Loretta is my grandmother. She was a lady with an abundance of grace, elegance and creativity. Loretta taught me a lot about life and just as much about creative pursuits like sewing, embroidery, re-purposing vintage finds and so much more. The root of my lifelong passion to create started with everything Loretta taught me.

Get Well Card
This week Get Well seemed to be a theme in terms of card creation. Two family members are under the weather and I needed to make Get Well cards for them. I used my Silhouette to cut out the words Get Well and used the Offset feature to create a layered look. The papers chosen for the card are a little more muted to convey a more masculine feel (I can't remember the name of the patterned paper pad I used for this card. That's what I get for procrastinating on posting to my blog!)
After making the Get Well cards, I turned my attention to making another Valentine card. This was a card I made on YouTube last Friday - here.
