A couple of new cards

Unfortunately, neither of these were made for happy occasions. The first was made for my co-worker who just lost her cat. She had this cat for around 16 years. She had accepted that the cat was going to pass on, but her husband was having a hard time. He wanted to cancel their trip to Florida, but she convinced him to go, and the cat passed while in the care of their house sitter.This card is made using Mellow Moss, Perfect Plum, and Very Vanilla paper. The ink colors are Pretty in Pink, Sage Shadow, Perfect Plum, Mellow Moss, and Very Vanilla (sentiment on the bottom and inside). The stamp sets are Heartfelt Thanks, Refuge and Strength (outside sentiment), and Warmest Regards (inside sentiment). The ribbon is Mellow Moss taffeta ribbon.

This next card is for another co-worker. He was admitted to the hospital this week with severe abdominal pain. Well, in the process of finding out what was causing the pain, they found a spot on his lung. While the doctor at the hospital doesn't think it's cancer, he DOES think it may be sarcoidosis, since his father has it.
This card is in River Rock, Soft Sky, and Very Vanilla paper. Everything is stamped in Basic Black. The truck is colored in using ink (from my inkpad) and blender pens. The colors are Basic Black (tires, bumpers, truck liner, and rims), Real Red, Pixie Pink, and Lovely Lilac. The ribbon is Basic Gray Taffeta ribbon.

Oh and on a side note, I'm getting close to 1500 posts. There MAY be some (small) blog candy when I get there.....
