I needed to make a quirky get well card for a sweet lady I work with, but this came out a bit too quirky. I am such a klutz this weekend - I broke one of my favorite dessert plates, I kicked a chair leg hard and bruised two toes, and I have made mistake after mistake on my cards. Luckly, we can always stick on another flower, butterfly, or some feathers!
This is a case of Scoopy (Emily). I was unfamiliar with her work, but I have really spent some time in her gallery and it is lovely. The first time I looked through it, it was to select a card to case, the second and third times were to find the card I chose again since I lost it - twice! Here it is:
Her card is super yummy, but I don't have many dessert stamps that work for a get well message so I went with my new Raisinboat stamp set instead. I changed the colors, images, and sentiments plus I added feathers to cover up the sentiment that I messed up.
Thanks for letting us hang out in your gallery Emily - it is super cute and you are super talented.
