SSD063-Skipping Stones Design Sketch Tuesday

We just returned home from a road trip (Utah to California and back) for a memorial service for my brother who was killed in a car accident.  He had so many good friends and it was great to be there to support his boys.  I wanted to incorporate a masculine sympathy card for my grown up nephews with the sketch for this week from Lea Lawson.  I love the sentiment on the base of the card from Healing Wings (SSD) as well as the tag sentiment from Always Here (also SSD).  I found some great DSP in my stash that looked a little grunge and grey...hopefully the flower didn't take away from the masculine feel of the card.  I think all three boys really liked their cards and the sentiment conveyed.  Here's a close up of the base sentiment:
And for the boys, I really am "always here for you".
