I had a relative pass away this month, sympathy cards are always my biggest challenge, so I did my best and here it is. I did a 6X6 Easel card, the branch is from the Pagoda cartidge, the Bird is from Animal Kingdom, and the sentiment came from Wild Card.
There are 3 parts of family memory keeping that are part of the crafting/scrapbooking world. First is Living History, what is happening now, the trip to the zoo, last years family reunion etc. Second, memories from days gone by, our ancestors, where they came from and how their experiences helped to shape us into who we are today, and finally staying in touch with the family that we have now, but don't see as often. I would like to spend a little time each week on all 3 of these.
