Yes, I know it's way past Tuesday, but I didn't have time earlier this week to get this card done. The recipient is the MIL (mother-in-law) of the sister of a friend that I chat with and blog with. That seemed a bit confusing.
Her sister's MIL went in to have some small lesions removed from her neck and ended up with some 2nd degree burns on her face. If you care to participate, you can get the mailing information
here.You might also send up a prayer or two on her behalf that she has a speedy recovery.
I was told by my GF that she loves blue and green and flowers. I kept it simple for easy mailing.
The stamp (yes, I actually used a stamp this time) is from an old, retired Stampin Up stamp set called Oh, So Lovely. I have kept all the stamp sets I've purchased with long-stemmed flowers on them. I just love them. The sentiment is also from SU - Vintage Vogue. The cardstock - SU Cool Caribbean and Xpress It Blending Card. The designer paper - SU Sycamore Street. The bling flourish is from Zva Creative. I used my Copic markers to color in the image - BG000; BG02, BG10, BG11; G21, G24, G43.
What a lovely card, I know that it will lift her spirits, that sentiment is perfect for the situation.

ReplyDeleteIt was very kind of you to make a card for a friend's relative. She is surely going to be cheered when she receives this lovely card. I especially enjoyed your coloring on the flowers, and the background papers were so pretty with those blues. The pearls sent this one right over the top. TFS
