Sending this to my hubby's sister. Her son was struck by a hit and run driver and was killed. All we know is that it was just after dark and it may either be a white or silver car that hit him. He was 38 years old.
I had recently bought this kit with a set of card bases that have preprinted images and die cut pieces that go with them and sentiments, since they didn't have any sympathy I stamped my own sentiment inside the wreath and then added the diecuts, they are so thick I didn't need to add any foam tape.
I also added some of those enamel shapes that Gina sent, they matched perfectly with the greenery in the background I thought.

I'm so sorry, Connie. I gasped when I read this and Rich asked me what was wrong so I read him your post. We've noticed a huge increase in hit and run in the last few years. Why would you hit and run unless you knew you were doing something wrong? Drinking, drugs, outstanding warrants, on your cell phone. Still, only a small coward would hit and run. I'm just so sorry this happened to your family. Your card is absolutely gorgeous. What a beautiful kit that must be. The pretty card base and the flowers are breathtaking. It makes a most lovely sympathy card.
So sorry for the loss of your nephew, such devastating news. Your card is beautiful, I’m sure your SIL really appreciated it.
Just catching up after a week away, your cards are fabulous as always.
Dearest Connie...

Oh, dearest Connie! My heart broke as well when I read about your nephew. I am so sorry and am praying for you and your family. I cannot imagine how difficult this is to comprehend and deal with, but we know that God is our comfort in our deepest sorrows...and this is certainly so deep. What a gorgeous card with this stunning wreath, and I know the card with this lovely sentiment will be a comfort to the family. Tender hugs and love to you all!
