Get Well Soon

Happy Saturday and what a busy one it is going to be. I am already 3 hours behind my schedule. I am usually up and moving by 5 am. I just got up today at 7.50 am. Boy did I need the rest. I wanted to post this card before I got out of the house this morning. It is a get well card. We hate to think of our friends and family being sick. But, if they do get sick we like to be able to do something to make them feel better. And most of the time there is not very much that we can. But a pretty card does help some. I think that this one may at least make someone smile.

The image is a freebie from The Pixie Cottage, Michelle doesn't usually give away freebies. But , I am glad that she gave this one. He is just so cute. and he can be used for many different types of cards. The image is by Artish. The Pixie Cottage challenge was to use a little green. The second challenge for this card is from Colour Create Challenge which is mint, chocolate and cream.


Doesn't this look delicious. I would love to have a piece of this pie right now. Oh well!! The next challenge is a sketch challenge from Mojo Monday.


The next challenge from Sophisticat Challenge Blog, Bling and Flourishes
And last but not least is from Die Cut Dreams, No flowers allowed

Now a little about my card. the green card stock is from Bazzill, the DP is from my stash and the chocolate and cream card stock is also Bazzill, but the chocolate embossed paper is from a pack of handmade papers that I bought at Hobby Lobby from the Paper Studio. I love these papers so much that I bought every color collection that they had with a coupon of course. The sentiment is from Inkadindado that I got at Michael's also with a coupon. I bought them because they had several sentiments and 3 different round frames included. And you know I colored with my Copics.

Boots: E59, E25
Umbrella: E51, E42, E59, E25
Water Bg72
Rain Coat: BG13, YG11, G21

Now here is my card:



The funny thing about the colors on the inside of this card is that the paper is the same. But because of the lighting when taking the pictures the paper looks different. I have got to find a better lighting source especially, when it is raining like today.
