Lets go to the card, a friend of ours had passed on, so this was for her husband, makes one realise mortality, as he and I went through school together.
To put a bit of humour into this, my eldest brother whos is 77 when asked how he is, sometimes answers, "I have dodged the Grim Reaper for another day". We have a sick sense of humour I'm afraid.
I had looked for inspiration on the web for a Kraft card as I haven't used any of this card before. I saw one that made an impression while I scrolled through, and then couldn't find it again, so whoever you are, thank you. If you think it's you, please let me know and I can give you credit.
I used Textual Paper Pack by Linda Tieu for the background, then used Photoshop floral brushes and added a cross, also a PS brush glittered, then made a border to match the background paper, printed it all out and added a velvet black bow.
I'm not entering any challenges as I have cased this card, not sure if it would be allowed.
