The Circle of Life.......


My Father-in Law passed away early Friday morning. He was 91 years old and had had a "good innings" (as everyone is saying) .......
A new baby was born to a family at our church early Saturday morning......


Here is the card I made for them. It uses a layout I saw on Dawn Mcveys blog from sketch 104 at the "Card positioning Systems" site.
Here are the links if you are interested...

A very sweet card Robyn - I bet they were rapt to get it.

Once again my sincere sympathy on the passing of your father-in-law.

So Sorry for your families loss, but I'm happy that there's a small joy in the loss too.
When my nanny died my auntie went into premature labour and my cousin Jessie is so much like her nanny it's ridiculous even though they didn't meet.
It's funny how God works sometimes...

Sorry to hear about your F.I.L. Robyn. Your pink card is just gorgeous. I have decided I just have to have the priceless set now, especially as I know it's not retiring ;)!

Hi Robyn, yes, life is an eternal circle. So sorry to hear of your family's loss - please know that my thoughts are with you and your husband and all in your family.

Your card for the lovely new life that has entered the world is beautiful. I love the soft colours and the added touch of the butterfly and the pink bow - it's really lovely and I'm sure it will be treasured for years to come.
