Get Well Soup. 

I love the simplicity of this stamp. 

I thought that a skewed card sums up how disjointed you feel when you're not well.

This single stamp says it all.

 

I gently scored diagonally across the card to add a little detail. 

Soft Suede, Sahara Sand and Very Vanilla cardstock and

 Cherry Cobbler Ink pad for the image and message.

Then added the Gold Natural Trim ribbon to give a little sparkle.

 

I stamped another image and cut out the bowl and spoon just to make it pop off the page.

 

The message for this card is from Flourishing Phrases.

This week I have been inspired by all of the amazing get well soon cards 

that I received since December.

So, this week I've made some others to show you.

I hope you like them and are inspired to make some of your own.

Please forgive the photos.

 My son, his wife and children have now moved in with me 

and I can't find my camera!! 

So, I used my phone for the pictures!

 

A very simple, flat card. Yes, I matted the Marina Mist and Very Vanilla. I drew 'stitching'

around the top mat to give it a border.

 

The stamp sets that I used were Brushwork Alphabet and Weather Together.

 As you can see a very simple card to start me off again.

Thank you.

Well its getting close to Valentines day so it had to be done lol
Now i'm not a particularly lovie dovie person when it comes down to cards so I find Valentines quite tricky but I have to say I'm really rather pleased with the cards I created for last nights class. They are equally as usable for Valentines as they could be for any occasion I feel.

super heros....

Today's  sample is a personal one for me my son turned 17 last week and he's Marvel mad so when I saw the Stampin' Up! stamp set called Everyday Hero in the spring summer catalogue i just knew I would be using it for him!
