The husband of the principal at my DD's school died suddenly. I used the school colors and plaid as the uniforms are plaid on the family's Sympathy card. I think they will get the connection. I went with the classic Handsome Hunter and Night of Navy with plaid DP from Manchester. A few large green eyelets were added in lieu of ribbon.

What a lovely card, I am sure all the trouble you have gone to will be appreciated. The plaid goes so well with the layout you have done - love Upsy Daisy, it works well in this card. TFS!

Hi Sister! Your card is a beautiful expression of sympathy and I'm sure will bring the family some comfort. Wonderful design and paper, the flowers are so pretty too.

It is so hard to make a sympathy card. This is just fantastic. She is going to love it. I really like the way you added the eyelets. I cannot imagine her pain. TFS
