In my usual form of late, the get well card was just mailed. I am not sure why I cannot get things done in a timely manner anymore. I always use to be early with everything, but no longer! It's the thought that counts, right? I so hope so........
My inspiration for the card was one of the Dreamweavers stencils. They have a wide variety of beautiful stencils (many of which are quite at home in my craft room!)and some of them are vertical greetings. I used a take off on their Get Well greeting, cut it out of some fun Coredinations card stock that I have had sitting around here forever, and then cut a lot of layers with the Silver Bullet Professional. The greeting is backed with Paper Temptress brown bag, the rectangle is Coredinations and the mat shadow is Paper Temptress Basis card stock.
You can see the detail of the letters on the mat and the various layers...
The card front....
Wanted to share a close-up of the woodgrain distressed. I love the wood pattern.
Since this card was for a male, I didn't want to overdue it with too much, so I used the Fern Branch from Penny Duncan Creations (thank you Penny!) and cut it out of Paper Temptress Mica and Pop Tones papers to add a slightly different look.
This was a relatively simple card for me and I would like to play around more often with the vertical greeting idea -it was a fun twist.
