A very tranquil sympathy card. Just right.

Fun image on the second card, nicely coloured.

The leafy branch is perfect for the sympathy card Kathy, and I love your add lines and script in the background, and then the fun AI image beautifully coloured and layered onto a pretty matching blue. Congratulations on being showcased over at LIM for their Occupations Challenge too, I love that image. x
