Leaves with sympathy

For Christmas, I always make my Mom a stash of sympathy cards so this is one for her present.  For this card, I am using a sentiment from TLC that is part of a great set that includes 10 one-liners. I also made this card for the Card Concept Challenge as a Clean and Layered sample.  We did some cleaning up of the leaves today in my yard, but I took a couple of pictures at the end of my driveway.
