Healing thoughts

 The Lady who owns the Stamp store in Missouri that I go to had emergency surgery, kidney stones had tore her insides up and she had really bad infection, she was in the hospital for quite a few days and even had to go back a week after for more things. She had to close down her store during that time because her only other worker was on vacation at the time.  I felt so bad for her and just had to make her a get well card. You know I had to use some papers that I bought from her store :) The flower ephemera was popped up with foam tape.


  • Prima - Aquarelle 6x6 papers, Journaling note cards and Ephemera pack, inking around all the edges with Distress ink in Dusty Concord
  • Simon Says stamps - Tiny Words Encouragement stamp set

I would like to share today's card with the following challenges:

Love those pretty papers optional fun fold
Triple B Challenge Birds, Blooms or butterflies
Simon Says Monday Challenge Things with wings

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and hope you have a wonderful weekend,

Connie

The papers you chose create such a gentle, comforting mood, and the popped up floral ephemera adds just the right amount of dimension while the inking around the edges pulls everything together into a warm and heartfelt get well card.
