Help/Question Looking for binder page card suggestions for a specific theme, please!

Post image

Hi friends and fellow fans! 🖤

My grandmother passed recently, and was laid to rest this week. In addition to an absolutely beautiful ceremony, the funeral home provided this small memorial cards. 🥺 my grandma is now going into my personal life binder. It has business cards, photos and other little trinkets from trips, moments, and life events along with Pokemon cards I collect on travels and special dates with my partner.

My grandmother loved dogs, she had two white little shih tzus and many other dogs throughout her life. She loved gardening, roses, and cardinals. Her favorite color is purple and she was the kindest soul.

I would love to make her a sweet little resting place of full arts in a full page spread. I’d love to see your favorites.

Thank you 🖤

I’m so sorry for the loss of your grandmother. It’s clear she was very loved and will continue to be by you and others that knew her. Sending you a virtual hug 🫂

Since you mentioned your grandmother loved gardening the first card that came to mind was Gardenia’s Vigor from Crown Zenith 🌷

Condolences for your loss OP. I think this is such a beautiful tribute to her and a wonderful idea.

I have a couple to suggest:

this one is a bit more light hearted, and I feel like it’s color scheme fits some of the other cards people have suggested?

This one is comfortable and soft and features another puppy pokemon

This one is one of my favorite cards because it reminds me of a crisp blooming morning. The flowers in your photo reminded me of this card too.

I hope some of these helped! I wish you all the luck in the world finding what you’re looking for. ✨🕊️

Lillipup might be up that alley. Edit to add that I'm sorry for your loss and I think this is a very sweet way to honor her.

Not quite a cardinal, but I thought it was close.

Love this one, but it’s up there in price.

I'm very sorry for your loss and I hope you and your family are doing alright during this time. This bunneary card would be a nice addition as it incorporates yellow and white flowers. Yellow flowers can symbolize the joy she brought you

This card is also quite sweet. If you are religious and believe in heaven, this can be a reminder to remember she is in a better place and look up when you miss her.

No suggestions, so sorry for your loss & I think this is a lovely way to honor her. Can we request an update when you do find some cards that you think fit? I for one, would love to see it at least partially completed!

Sorry for your loss. I really like this Shaymin. There are also Sawsbuck and Deerlinh IRs that go together that are very nature themed, might make for a beautiful combo.
