Get Well Sybil

My elderly neighbour is unfortunately in hospital following a fall downstairs just after Christmas.  The fall resulted in her breaking her arm in two places and sustaining various other injuries.  I wanted to make a special Get Well Card for her and thought these sweet and sunny papers from the Papermania Spring Time 8x8 paper pack (which I picked up recently for just £1) would bring a little sunshine to her hospital ward. 

I apologise, but I don't know the make of the stamp as I had this stamped image in my stash, sent to me by one of my lovely crafting pals (thanks to Juniejo and Annie, I now know it is a Lili of the Valley stamp - thanks girls!).  I thought he was a happy little chappie and with his huge bouquet, I hope he will bring a smile to Sybil's face when she opens the envelope.  Many hospital wards don't allow patients to have flowers now, so this everlasting bouquet is just the ticket!
I coloured the image with ProMarkers and added a few touches of Spica glitter pen.  I cut out the image and green layer using oval and petite scallop oval nestabilities dies.  I then added a length of yellow lace from my stash, securing it with staples to the bottom of the DP layer.  Finally, I added a yellow Prima flower, colouring the edges of the petals with the Gold PM to darken the colour a little to match the DP and adding a pretty flower printed brad in the centre.  A "Get Well Soon" sentiment stamped inside the card was the finishing touch before I sent the card off to the hospital, I do hope she likes it.

Thanks for stopping by today, I'd love to welcome you back again tomorrow, when I will have more creations to share with you.  Feedback is always great to receive, leave me a comment if you wish, it makes me so happy to read them all.
