Get Well

This was the first card that I was happy about in a very long time.  I think I had lost my creative mojo with all that has been going on.  I am still on some pretty strong pain meds while I am typing this post ( I made the card awhile back and had my son take the picture this morning) so if I make any errors I can blame them on that ;-).  As I sit here in my recliner looking across my bedroom at my work area (I cannot wait to get enough energy to get over there!) I see a pattern.  I have used the same color scheme in all of the cards that I have made the 2 weeks I had between my surgeries.  I love the Blueberry Crisp DSP and the colors that it comes in are great!

For the background on the Top Note Die I cut the paper in strips and glued them on a piece of scrap paper. I then ran it through the Big Shot and trimmed off the outer edge.  I then mounted it on the Crumb Cake and ran it through the Big Shot again with the Vintage Wallpaper Impression folder. I sponged Crumb cake across the top. The Pacific Point card base was stamped in Crumb Cake with the Sanded Background.  I sponged the edges of everything with Crumb Cake.  I am also addicted to the pearls and someone has to stop me from adding them to every card I make :).

Aviary Thank you

So I figured that I would try to get a card made before my surgery. I got one done and some parts for another couple started that I hope to get together and finished yet this week.  I love this set in the catalog but it has so many options that I want to do that I just could not figure out where to start.  So I kept it pretty simple.  I stamped the cage leg and used dimensionals to pop up the cut out cage.  I love, love, love the new decorative label punch from the mini and I know I will get my money's worth out of it.  I am going to need quite a few thank you cards in the next month.  I sponged across the card from with a bit Early Espresso Ink.

Card Details:
Stamps: Aviary, Because I Care (Hostess level 1)
Paper: Marina Mist, Early Espresso, Very Vanilla
Ink: Early Espresso, Marina Mist
Accessories:  Decorative Label Punch, Early Espresso Ribbon, Big Shot, Finial Press Impression Folder, Scallop Trim Border Punch, 1/8"  Early Espresso Taffeta Ribbon
