Get Well Soon!

Good Day To You Friends!

I'm so glad you're here.  I hope all is well on your end, wherever that may be.

I made this card for my dear 85 year old mother in law who is recovering from a couple of surgeries to repair a fissure that just sort of appeared out of nowhere in her stomach.  She is on the mend and doing quite nicely but the recovery isn't fast enough for her.  She wants to get back to teaching water aerobics.

This little sweetie is called Tilda With Bunny Slippers.  I've stamped her with Memento black and colored her with Distress Inks.

The flowers and stems are from my stash, I died a few white mini roses dark blue with Distress Ink and die cut the leaves with the Magnolia Rose Leaves die.

I made the little "pills" in the bottle using heart shaped cookie decorating candies and then inked them with Distress Ink.  Don't you just love those band aid's?  Those are made using the Magnolia Heart Band Aid die.


Here is the patient "chart" or clip board for the doctor's notes, made with several Magnolia dies.  The Heart and Spoon are from the Recipe Card collection, the Thyme is from the Little Italy collection and the stars are from the DooHickey's club volume 9 collection.  I made the clip using the club volume 5 balloon.


The patterned papers I've used for this project are called Dress Shoppe by Nitwit Collections.

Distress Inks used for this project:  Aged Mahogany, Brushed Corduroy, Bundled Sage, Chipped Sapphire, Frayed Burlap, Peeled Paint, Scattered Straw, Stormy Sky, Tattered Rose, Victorian Velvet, Vintage Photo, Walnut Stain


Thank you so much for visiting my blog!  I hope you have a great day and better tomorrows.

Hi Laura,

Finally I see your work :). Hope your mother-in-law likes the card. It looks stunning and your colouring is marvellous. I like the small details, specially the medicine jar on the top with the little white cotton.

Thank you so much for sharing it on the blog!

Cheers,
