White on White - Sympathy card

Happy Saturday Blogland friends!!! Are you enjoying a quiet evening at home like I am? That's what I like about winter, no feelings of guilt for wanting to stay warm and comfy :)

Here is a card I made as a sympathy card. I always have trouble with these cards, they are difficult to make and I find there is a fine line between a condolence and a wedding card right? Maybe just my way to give it another meaning making me feel better. Seems this design could have worked for both?

Hope you like :)

Happy Retirement Patricia

 Happy Sunday everyone!

 

Sharing a special card I made for a very special lady. Friday was her last day working with us and the beginning of a brand new retired life for her.

 

 

Patricia has been a colleague and a friend for many many years. Loving, caring and so funny! Tomorrow will be different for all of us as we enter the office to find an empty desk. Patricia, I wish you the best retirement ever! You deserve all the happiness in the world! Hoping you are as happy as you have made us on a daily basis. I thank you for having been part of my life and here's to continued friendship. Love you bunches!! xx

 

This card is in an 8"X 8" format giving enough space to have the whole office sign. The retirement sentiments are from The Cuttin' Cafe . Hope you like :)
