This week we lost a pretty amazing man in our family. A couple of weeks ago, my Great Uncle Henry celebrated his 105th birthday. This week, we are celebrating his life at his funeral. The sadness we feel is not for him, it's for us. We will miss his wisdom, spunk, and humor desperately. The sympathy cards are for those of us whose lives he touched and changed forever. It's not often we get to celebrate someone who lived over a century and experience the changes in the world around him over more than 100 years. Tomorrow, we will do just that. Thank you Uncle Henry for the lessons you taught us and may we pass them on to the next generation.
This card was inspired by the colors for this week's CAS Challenge. The cabin and deer were colored in using a Soft Suede ink pad and Blender pens. /A pumpkin pie watercolor pencil was used for the window trim and pumpkins. The trees and grass were colored with the Garden Green Watercolor Pencil. My favorite quote from AA Milne is stamped on the inside of this card: "You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, smarter than you think, and loved more than you know." 
Make sure you head over to Inspire.Create Challenge #051 and CAS Challenge #337 to see the inspiration cards by the design teams and other creative entries.
