You won't believe that I wasn't going to actually post a card for today...I have a couple RAK's to share so I was going to call that good...then I remembered that I needed to create a sympathy card..sigh.
Here's what I learned....I don't really have any sympathy oriented sentiments for close friends...all that I have are the impersonal "With Sympathy" types....if you all have neat ones, please share them with me...
Anywho's, I did find a sentiment via the PTI Friends Til the End set...
Let me tell you a little story...years & years ago when my brother and I visited our Dad up in BC we were both literally alarmed when our Dad gave us each big bear hugs...when we got back in the car we actually asked each other if he was potentially terminally ill...isn't that sad? That would be the stereotypical traditional Asian family...No, he wasn't ill, he was given a lecture by one of his students {he was a professor} about the lack of hugging or something like that...evidently a light bulb went off in my Dad's brain and you would have thought he thought it was the best thing since sliced bread...My father ended up passing away in 1999. He would probably be pretty pleased that the kidlets are huggers:)
Okay, okay....my friend who's fil passed away is always trying to get a hug from me...so she'll chuckle when she reads her card:) A bunch of the girls are getting together to get her a gift certificate to a nursery so her family can go pick up a tree {or whatever} that they can plant in their yard, in remembrance of Grandpa.
I was inspired by FTL93:

Check out the super cute card I recently received from the oh-so-fabbie Ivy Wong:
