Goodbye to a Sweet Friend

We all know it will happen, and it is the circle of life, but losing a pet is difficult. Our four legged friends are an integral part of our family, with their often quirky antics and loving ways. Recently a friend of mine lost her cat Scruffy. I can’t change that, but I can send her a card to let her know I’m sorry for her loss and I’m thinking of her. This is the card I sent her.

Scruffy was a tan and brown tabby, so I stamped my cat from the Nine Lives stamp set with Early Espresso ink on Crumb Cake card stock. The sentiment is from the same set, and I cut it way the Layering Circles and Stitched shapes dies.
I embossed the Merry Merlot background piece with the Tufted TIEF, and added some gold metallic pearls to finish off the card.

As a follow up, I got a message from my friend to say she had received my beautiful card, and really appreciated me taking the time to make and send it.
And that is the power of cards to brighten someones day.
