Healing Hugs for a get well card

Our latest team challenge asks us to make a get well card ready for this season of coughs and colds and I chose to make this sweet card using the stunning Healing Hugs stamp set. I have had this set for a while and never inked it up and it is stunning.

Making the card

I stamped the large flower image in Merry Merlot ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and cut it out using my sharp scissors. The flower is gorgeous, the petals almost look like velvet; the dimension these distINKtive stamps give is amazing. Using a sponge dauber I inked around the edges of the flower with the Merry Merlot ink.

I cut a panel of Tropical Escape Designer Series Paper (dsp) 5” by 3⅛”. I cut a scalloped border from a ½” strip of Merry Merlot cardstock and the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch. I added the border to the dsp panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I stamped the leaves in Old Olive ink in the bottom right corner of a Thick Whisper White card base before gluing down the dsp panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I added the cut out flower in the lower right hand corner on Stampin’ Dimensionals and stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Old Olive ink. To complete the card I added a trio of Share What You Love Artisan Pearls.

I hope you like it.

Feathers Make Every Day Bright

Today I have used the sweet hostess stamp set called Making Every Day Bright to make a get well card for one of my team members who slipped and fell whilst on holiday and fractured her elbow………..ouch. She has just had surgery and will hopefully now be on the mend. This charming stamp set co-ordinates with the Christmas Bulb Builder punch and the Making Christmas Bright stamp sets from the Autumn/Winter catalogue.

Making the Every Day Bright card

I took a piece of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5” by 3 ¼” and randomly stamped the sweet little feather image in Rich Razzelberry, Mint Macaron and Mint Macaron. Like many others I find random stamping really challenging.

I added the stamped panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to a piece of Mint Macaron cardstock measuring 5¼” by 3½”. I wrapped a length of Rich Razzelberry ⅛” Velvet Ribbon around the card panel securing it on the back with Sellotape.

I die cut a circle using the Stitched Shapes framelit dies, tucked the circle under the ribbon and stamped the sentiment from the Apron of Love stamp set in Mint Macaron ink.

I stamped the feather once in each colour onto scrap Whisper White cardstock and punched them out using the Christmas Bulb Builder Punch. I tucked the feathers under the strip of ribbon using Mini Glue Dots and added a ribbon bow on top.

Such a pretty card and I love the unusual colour combo. I hope it brings a smile to Jill’s face.
