Sympathetic Lotus Blossom

"I needed a sympathy card" is how all my posts about sympathy cards start. But when else do you want to make that kind of card?? Exactly never, in my opinion. Which means I needed a sympathy card...
One of my favorite school teachers passed away, and he happens to be the person who took me to Germany when I was 15, with an exchange program I just learned he created. I wanted to send his wife something to thank her (and him...) for the time he spent on his students and I'm really glad this turned out so nicely for her.
I used the current Freshly Made Sketch and the beautiful Lotus Blossom flower to make this:

Supplies:
Stamps: Lotus Blossom, Thoughts and Prayers
Ink: Soft Suede, Soft Sky
Paper: Pool Party & Whisper White card stocks, Park Lane DP
Accessories: Soft Sky seam binding, Dimensionals

I did attend the viewing, and spoke to his wife...now I just have to figure out what on earth to write.....
