I did this card awhile back using Gina K's "Not Forgotten" set and Rupa's "Guiding Light". My intention was to emboss the card using my Nestabilities but... I just haven't figured out how to do that without actually cutting the paper. *sigh* Practice, I guess.
All in all, this did not turn out as I wanted but I did want to make a card for my ex-mother-in-law. She lost her husband a year ago and I know EVERY Father's Day will be hard for her. She said she's been through a whole year of "holidays" now since he's gone so it should get easier. Truth is... "I" know she will feel a void even still. She and I are still so very close and I worry about and think about her often during holiday times.
I'm not great with my Copics yet and DEFINITELY need some help on water... LOL But you cannot blame a girl for trying... I don't quit easily! LOL
The inside of the card I used the simple rope image from Rupa's set and thought it was plenty. Tom (my ex-father-in-law) loved to fish and this set just seemed so appropriate as well as simple... much like he preferred life. Here's to memories of our lost loved ones. God Bless.
