MDUC #34 - Easel Card

I wanted to make a Get Well card to cheer up my sister in law, unfortunately she ended up back in hospital after suffering some complications after surgery, but she is now back home recovering. The Magnolia Down Under Challenge this week is an Easel Card, and I have been wanting to make one of these for ages. So put two and two together and what do you get - an Easel Get Well card!!!




I coloured her with my Stampin' Up! Inks and Aqua Painter and I added some crystal effects to the raindrops and the puddle. All cardstock, DSP and ribbon is from Stampin' Up!


It really needed a bit more embellishment, but I needed to get this photographed and sent off, otherwise my sister-in-law will be better before she even gets the card - although to see her back on her feet in a matter of days would be the best gift of all.


I hope you are having a good start to the week.
