Less Is More Challenge Number 24

Over at the LIM challenge site the challenge this week is circles. Sort of sums up how i’ve been since getting some very sad news yesterday. One of my oldest friends has passed away after having a heart attack.  He was only 46 years old and leaves behind his wife and two young boys.  It was a shock for everyone and my thoughts are with his wife and family at this time…

Tried to numb the sad news by attempting this weeks challenge, couldn’t sleep and my mind wasn’t really on the job so forgive the really bad cards, lack of descriptions and my lack of comments this week. 

Here are the six cards for this weeks challenge.

    Sorry you've had such sad news, will be thinking of you.
    Cards are great, my favourite being the flower but closely followed by the dog, I like the way you've stamped on the circles and matched up the design, hmmm or do I prefer the dog card? You've made it difficult to choose this week! :-)

    I'm so sorry about your news...it's so sad to lose a friend, especially one so young (and I can say young because I'm 60!) My heart is with you and my prayers are with his family.

    Love all six of your cards....but I think my favorite is the one with multiple clocks!!

    So sorry to hear your news. To lose someone so dear and so young does put day to day life in perspective sometimes. I am so glad you found some comfort in your crafting. You did a wonderful job. I love the time flies card the best but they are all great as always.
