SU Long Stemmed

Cards that are sent with sadness…

Most cards I make or send are for happy occasions- birthdays, weddings, gratiude…but there comes a time, when I have to send a sympathy card to someone who has lost a loved one. These are sent with sadness for the individual receiving it and the sorrow he or she is feeling. But many times, my heart is rejoicing if that the person who passed away knows Jesus! What a feeling to know that person is with Him now.
