Get Well Soon and Thinking of You






Hello and happy Monday.  Despite my house guests, I was able to sneak a bit of crafting time in this weekend.  My first card uses this week's sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch #93 and the challenge at Lawnscaping #90: Critters Galore. I broke open my NBUS Lawn Fawn Get Well set to make this get well card suitable for a young person--always good to have one or two of those in my stash.  I die cut, stamped and colored the little images from the set, and then adhered them at various heights to my card front, which I impressed with my PTI Hexagon Cover Plate for a little quilted dimension.






If I were not over the limit, I would be linking up at Darnell's NBUS challenge--but I am mentioning it here just in case you have been living in a cave or under a rock--and you are not familiar with this challenge.  Use something new, link up here, and get a chance to win a fabulous prize.






I am entering my next card at ColourQ #259 and Sweet Sunday Sketch #237.    I used the extra pieces from the LID Stitches and Stripes Cover Plate, and ended up inadvertently flipping the sketch.  The flowers are from WPlus9 Fresh Cut Florals, and the stripes are the extra pieces from the LID Stitches and Swirls Cover Plate.




I am also entering both of these cards at Simon Says Monday Stencils or Stamps--because of the stamping.  I'm off to do a little blog visiting now.

  
Thanks for Visiting
