Good evening to you all in the land of blog
Today I am going to show you the second get well card for my work colleague, another of Mo Manning's fabulous images and just perfect for a work a holic, as I know what she will be doing when she should be resting
So without too much introduction here it is
This is another 8 x 8 card to allow for a large signing area in side
The base layer is a deep royal blue, with some gorgeous Bloomsbury Papers that I purchased at Grimsby Crafts, I have to say that these papers and the other colour ways available are so lush. I have used the contrast colour to create a ribbon band edged on both sides with the MS decorative heart edge punch and I have used another of my new Memory Box dies, this one is the new release called "Cherish Border" from Dies to Die for The large heart is by MS and the sentiment is on this occasion computer generated. The flowers are from Wild Orchid and have been airbrushed to match the card as has the ribbon / bow.
Here is a close up of the image, which is a Mo Manning and just seemed perfect for her, it is coloured in copics and airbrushed around the edges. The soft fluffy look was gained by in the main dot colouring with a last blend to soften this.
I would as always like to say Thank you to all my wonderful visitors who take the time to leave such inspirational comments, which allows me the opportunity to hop on over and visit them in return.

Hi Kate beautiful creation you do make stunning cardsx
What a wonderful creation. I don't usually think of blue when I think of hearts. Your hearts look great. I now want that heart edge punch...Thanks for sharing your creation with the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge.
Beautiful card. I'm sure your coworker is going to love it. Also, great idea on making the card 8x8 for the signing area. I'm going to have to remember that when I make a card for my coworkers to sign. Thank you for stopping by and playing with us over at Sentimental Sundays for our die cut challenge.
