With Sympathy

Sadly, I was in need of a sympathy card.  My sister-in-law's grandson was killed in a car accident. He was only 23 years old and left behind a wife and three little children, 2, 1 and 3 weeks.  I feel so bad for all of them.


I used a Penny Black stamp called Pop Pop Poppy.  I colored the stamp with Distress Markers, spritzed with water and stamped it on watercolor paper.  I used my water brush to do some extra shading.  I added some watercolor splatters and the sentiment on a white flag.

Thoughts and prayers for Jo and her family would be appreciated.  My heart aches for them.
