SC 075/13...

Inside Card...
What a great challenge we have over at Sunny Challenges & Creations for you this fortnight.  Once again Gwen has been very easy on us whereby she has given us no sketch, but that we are to create a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item with the theme of "Get Well". 

This is the type of card that we usually leave to the last moment to create, but one that we should all probably have in our box of goodies for that special person who may not be feeling on top of the world & knowing that you were thinking of them can pick them up no end.

After creating 2 cards, yep you read right - TWO - I went to post the challenge, only to discover that I had the wrong sentiment, so back to the drawing board for me.  I then completely went in another direction & created one for the male, which we don't see too often, but can be a difficult one to create.

Would you believe I don't own a "Get Well" stamp.  I just about pulled my shelves apart looking for one.  There is nothing worse than looking for something you think you have.  Anyhow, not to be outbeaten, I then grabbed a piece of Whisper White Cardstock, typed the sentiment in Early Expresso Ink & printed out.  So now you know what will be in my next order along with any other sentiment that I think I may need in the future.......

In fact, my card all started from a small piece of Always Artichoke Cardstock & went from there.  For the layout, I took the layout from Mary-Jo's current challenge.

I've just rememered that it fits my online group's challenge over at Latenight Stampers as well.  How good is that? Not starting out with much at all & I've completed 3 challenges with the same card.....

We would love for you to play along with our challenge this week.  To get you started, why not pop on over to Sunny Challenges & Creations, see what Gwen, Kris & our Guest Designers have created.  Create your card, etc, post to an online group or forum, then link back to Mr Linky.

Remember if we have over 10 entries, then we can give out 2 Ray of Sunshines.......

This is beautiful Vicky. Never would have thought of using this set for this type of card but it works perfectly. Genius.

What a great card, Vicky! So clean, and crisp - and I love that you used a stamp set I wouldn't have thought to use for this purpose. It works perfectly!
