Get Well Wishes with Mixed Bunch


Back again today with a simple card.  It has been so hot here that staying in and making cards is all I want to do. It is just too hot to get out in the afternoons.  So, there is nothing better then getting in the craft room and working on a card in the air conditioning.

My stamp is from Stampin' Up.  It is part of the Mixed Bunch set and is stamped in Regal Rose ink.  I really like this set with its coordinating punch.  The sentiment is also SU.  It is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set.  I just love this set of sentiments.  I used the SU Blossom punch to punch out my flower and the circle punch and Scallop punch for the sentiment.  The center is a button brad from Basic Grey.  The doily is a die cut from MFT Die-namics called  Decorative Doily Duo.  The ribbon is also SU.  All the paper is from my stash.  I also put some score lines on the card for a decorative touch.  It is not easily seen in this picture.  I used a sketch from Pals-Paper Arts Challenge.
