I stamped the image on Whisper White CS with Archival Black ink, colored it with pencil crayons and mounted it on a panel of So Saffron. I used glue dots to stick the ribbons to the back of the DSP panel and adhered it to a Wisteria Wonder card base. I snipped the ends to form flags and used a glue dot under each ribbon to hold them in place on the card. To make the sentiment I stamped 'get well' onto Whisper White CS, then masked off the other stamp so I could add 'wishes' with my stamp positioner. I trimmed it to the size I wanted and fussy cut a point on each end, glued it to the So Saffron backing piece and trimmed the ends to match. I popped up the picture with dimensionals and added the sentiment on a jaunty angle by gluing it to the picture and adding a small piece of dimensional under each of the free ends. Because I am going to mail this card I chose to use Dazzling Details to add some bling to the centers of the flowers and on the sentiment.

Great job colouring this amazing image, Eunice. I can hardly wait to have time to play with mine, too! I also like the way you used the two complementary ribbons for the banner. The sentiment is perfect for a wishing well! Thanks for joining us at As You See It Challenges.

I think the ribbons work really well as the banners and I like the jaunty angle on your sentiment. The colouring is lovely. Eunice, thanks so much for joining us again at As You See It.
