Feel Better

It's Sunday! And today I'm gonna share a easel card with an image from Lili Of the Valley called Little Nurse. Another one of my favorite stamps.  I colored the image with Distress Ink Reinkers. 
 MME 6x6 Lost and Found Market Street is what I used for my patterned paper.  It kinda looks pink in the picture but it really is peach.

The bandaid and the "feel better" sentiment is from Studio G.



 The sentiment inside is hand written.

The flowers are all from Wild Orchid Crafts.  I painted the white wild roses and the open roses with Dried Marigold to get that peach color.  I find it better to color or stain my flowers to get a certain shade or color to match the card. A few weeks ago, I ordered a bunch of white, ivory and cream flowers so I can play around and color or stain them. 

I stitched around the patterned paper and the image with my sewing machine. I used Magnolia Doohickey Dies (Tags), peach ribbon, brown/white twine, bazzill paper (sugar cream) and the sticky pearls.

Lili's Little Fairies Valentines Sketch

Hi. I finished this card last night....yes, I didn't watch the Grammy's last night...nor do I watch TV for more than 30 minutes.  I just don't have that much patience.  I'd rather sink myself in my desk and play with paper and ink.  This image is from LOTV and one my faves.  I colored 6 of this images (practiced on 5 of them LOL)  and so far this is one I finally placed on this card.



I used the following for this card:
The image is from Lili of the Valley
Distress Inks
MSE Love Me 6X6 Paper Pad
Spellbinder Dies: Circle, Scalloped Circle, Heart
Magnolia Doohickey Dies
Ribbon, charm, cheese clothe
White Cardstock
Flowers: Wild Orchid Crafts 
(All the pink flowers, except for the small rose buds, I colored them by praying Tattered Rose mixed with water)
