Sympathy Card Using Imagine That Digis "Pretty Petunia's" and CTMH Some Kind Of Wonderful Paper

Hello friends!  How are you doing?  I retired from nursing 9 yrs. ago; and never realized that my life would become even more hectic.  I thought retirement was supposed to be all play and no work.  LOL!  

I started as a Close To My Heart consultant 5 yrs ago; and have loved every minute of it.  But there is always housework, laundry, cooking, dishes, 2 Dr. appointments a week, taking care of my 4 Feral cats, etc. competing with my time in the Craft room.  Does anyone else have trouble balancing all the things you need to do versus the crafting that you really love doing?  If you have any suggestions; please let me know.  My house and my craft room are always a mess.  LOL!

I created several Sympathy cards last year using Imagine That Digis "Pretty Petunia's" and have loved every one of them.  I only have one Sympathy card left; so I need to get started making more of them.  This set of 22 images can be used to create a lot of different cards; as I did.  I used Imagine That  Digis"Sentimental Thoughts" which is 9 different sentiments and is free when you purchase Daffodil, Poppy or Queen Anne's Lace.  You can use the black and whites to color your own; or the colored images as I did; which make quick and easy cards.
