Thoughtful Journey, Stylish Shaped, Get Well Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a get well card to share with you. I found it on the internet. You can see the original card here.  Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. 

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Lost Lagoon card stock for the layer. On top of that is a 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Thoughtful Journey" 6" x 6" stack. I taped that to the Lost Lagoon piece and then I taped it to the card base.

The flowers and stem were cut using the die from the "Thoughtful Wishes' bundle. I cut one from a piece of Mossy Meadow and one from Fresh Freesia card stock. I snipped the flowers off on the Fresh Freesia piece and glued them to the Mossy Meadow piece. I would recommend cutting them one or two at a time to keep them in order. I didn't do that so I had to play the matching game! I glued the pieces in place.

Then the stem was glued to the front of the card. I used little dots of glue on each flower and that was enough to hold them down.

The words were done on my computer because I couldn't find get well words that would work. I used the Arial Black font for the "get well" part. I typed it in all capital letters at 20 pt.  And the "soon" was done using the "Bahnschrift Light" italic font at 20 pt. Then I printed them out on a piece of Wild Wheat card stock.  I cut the words out using the die from the "Stylish Shapes" set. I also cut a Fresh Freesia piece from the same bundle. I taped the two pieces together.

I took a piece of linen thread and made some loops on the word piece. Dimensionals were added to the back that helped hold the thread down. I set the piece in place on the front of the card.

Some sequins were glued on to the front of the card and the card was done. I was just using what I had on hand.

This was a super fun and quick card to make. Well, it did take me a little while to get the words right but other than that it was really quick. I think it's pretty and it should cheer up the one receiving it.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's get well card,
