Feel Better Soon...

Hi all!  Happy Tuesday to you!  The weather's been wonky again here,  a couple of days ago it was beautiful, sunny and in the 80's and the past couple of days it's been in the mid to upper 50's, a bit cloudy & drizzley. Jut the type of weather patterns that get everyone catching cold..So I thought I best start working on some get well cards just in case, since my supply has been depleted from the last go around, lol... I also thought why not join the CR84FN color challenge #28 as well while I was at it... 8-)

Thought I would try my hand out today with a card that no coloring was required.  It always takes, what seems to me as forever to color up my images, don't get me wrong, I love love love to color, but I often wonder  if everyone else takes as long as I do..lol.. Then I think, no Shannon it's just you who takes forever..LOL.. I have been told that I may just be a bit overly critical of myself & my creations... But, I still wonder some times...   

 I started off by stamping my card base with my IO Dots CAC ( love those things! must get more of them) using Color Box pigment ink in White Frost and I stamped my upper BG panel with Hero Arts Flower Pattern using Scattered Straw distress ink and then inked the edges.  My large Die cuts were created with my Cricut and the new Elegant Edges cartridge using a combo of yellow CS from my stash and Some fun dp from Basic Grey. Let me tell you, I Love this new Cricut cartridge! I can tell that it's going to be my new go to cartridge for sure.  My IO sentiment was stamped with Memento Rich Coco onto a fabulous Nesties Grommet tag and lightly sponged with Scattered Straw distress ink and popped up with a few dimensionals after threading my off-white seem binding ribbon through so I could tie it all up with a pretty bow. To finish up my cheery little get well card I added a few Prima paper flowers and some fun little buttons. And lastly, I have to tell you, I know I said this was going to be a no coloring required card, well, I fibbed a little..lol.. I actually had to color up my pretty paper flowers and some of the stripes on my dp with my trusty Copics, so everything would match the challenge color scheme... 8-)  

Hope you are enjoying your Tuesday & thanks so much for dropping by!
