Tuesday the Teapotters made cards for the family of Shawna Rae, a 19 yr old girl who lost her two yr battle with ovarian cancer. Soooo sad. :( Her Aunt is our own Robin (RJP111) who has my condolences.
I don't make sympathy cards because they're hard on my heart. I decided today was the day to make a "special" card for Shawna's family. Tuesday's CC501 colors are crumb cake, real red and coastal cabana, which I used on my card. I didn't have coastal cabana but it looked like a greenish-blue TEAL to me. TEAL happens to be the color that represents Ovarian Cancer so I incorporated it onto my card in several places, including the heart that Agatha is holding. In addition to writing a message on the inside, I included a die cut teal ribbon (like the pink breast cancer ribbon) w/a red heart.
I hope the family finds some comfort knowing there are people out here who read Shawna's story, who feel her loss and who care.
Thank you for looking.

I also have a difficult time making a sympathy card, for the same reasons. I am really glad you did make this card. It is so very special. Your color choice is also makes this card extra special. I really love your card..
