It is with a heavy heart that I release Forever Heather - a kit made as a tribute to a dear friend that passed away unexpectedly two weeks ago. She was the mother of my niece, a friend, a sister and a member of my family. She was a fantastic girl, full of life, smiles and mischief (lots of it!) and that is exactly how I will remember her.
I wanted the kit to reflect the loss but also the life that she did lead, the soft colors of her femininity, the florals to bring out her beauty and the whole kit to be a part of her now that she is gone. I felt strange about releasing it but after thinking about it I know that I am not the only one who has gone through a loss and felt the despair after that person is gone - this is meant to be a kit to use to remember those that we have lost and this says it best -
Do not cry because it is over, smile because it happened ~ Dr. Seuss
I worked on the wordart and it was a therapuetic process for me. I wanted to include things that weren't rememberance related but still meaningful to most. I hope that you enjoy them!
The kit is on sale this week for 35% off so make sure you head over to the store before you miss out!
