Get Well Wishes


Good morning everyone,
Here I am again today with another cute bear from the my new LotV art pad. This was really quite a quick and easy card to make ... I just somehow felt inspired to fit it in before I cleared away from my weekend craft session.


As James is fairly monochrome but is holding a daisy, I thought I would go with some bright fresh spring-like papers, and I was very pleased to see how well the papers went together from an old and a new pack. I then finished off with some bright spring blossoms :-)


Stamps: sentiment from LotV "Vintage Labels - Occasions";
Papers: LotV "Bonnets & Bowties" (leaves) and "Shabby Shack" (green);
Supplies: image from LotV Art pad 23 - "James & Jenny Bear"; flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts; buttons from The Ribbon Girl; ribbon from my stash;
Tools: Cheery Lynn "Queen Anne lace" edge die; Leone Em "Ash Family" leaf punch.


Challenges:
Allsorts #248 - Spring is Coming
Really Reasonable Ribbon #90 - Show me The Green + Ribbon
Crafty Ribbons #78 - Ribbons & Buttons
(old items used = background paper & flowers)
MAWTT - 4 things beginning with L
(LotV topper, label, layers, leaves)

Thanks very much for visiting today.
Hugs,
