Sweet Succulents

OUCH!

Hi, I hope you’re having a good week so far? Today I have a card that I made for my parents’ friend who had a fall which resulted in a bone in her leg pierce through her skin – ouch! At the time I had just coloured these images from MFT Sweet Succulents set and was debating what card to make with them. I remembered that one of the sentiment stamps in the set was ‘ouch!’ so I thought I would use them to make a ‘get well soon’ card for this poor lady.

OUCH! 2

Other supplies used: ‘Get Well Soon’ stamp from Clearly Besotted – ‘Message Me’, Spectrum Noirs, ‘Me to You’ Enamel Dots a Memento Tuxedo Black inkpad and the MISTI. Also the following Lawn Fawn products -Stripy Backdrop die, Stitched Circle Die, Everyday Sentiments Banner Die, ‘Let’s Polka in the Dark’ and ‘Perfectly Plaid’ papers.

That’s all from me for today. I hope you have a great weekend, take care – Karen 🙂

Hi there, how’s your summer going? Now school is out I will be posting once a week so here is a little card that I have made using the Sweet Succulents stamp set from My Favorite Things. When ‘succulents’ stamps first start appearing I did wonder why would you want to make a card with these images! However, the more cards I have seen – especially one’s that have been water-coloured – the more it made me kind of want a set for myself! I chose this set because the pots are all separate images so you can mix the plants with whatever pot that you want. You can get the dies to match but I just did some fussy cutting here. I have coloured these images with Spectrum Aqua Markers. The sentiment stamp is from Waltzing Mouse Stamps (no longer trading) and for the pop-up element inside the card I have used the Mama Elephant Pop-up Creative Cuts dies.
