Somebody I knew since grade school recently passed away. It was shocking to hear about since he was so young. He died in a car crash while traveling for fall break. I wasn't really close with him or anything and I didn't really see him that much as I got older, but he was my class during grade school and I remembered him as someone who was nice to everyone.
I made a sympathy card for his parents. It's watercolor painted flowers and says "Sorry about your loss" on the front. Here's a photo I took while in the process of painting it:

I really like how it turned out. I think in the future, I'll make some cards like it to sell. This is one of the first cards I've made though that I've actually used myself and it was kind of a nice feeling to be able to make our own cards.


I had a couple blank watercolor cards left, so I painted all of those too. I should have a couple Thanksgiving, Christmas and other holiday items to list soon. I'm still thinking of ideas of what kind of holiday themed stuff I can make.
There was an online sale at Hollander's, the shop I buy most of my journal making stuff at. I needed some more glue, but I stocked up on a bunch of new stuff and got some new, pretty decorative paper (some holiday and winter themed one) I can't wait to use.

I'm sure his parents will appreciate the handmade touch on the card (which is beautiful). I'm sorry about your lose!
