Hello my friends. I found this cool site during my searching for some new challenge blogs. Shop Our Stash blog challenges you to use up your hoarded materials. It's a great way to pull out things you haven't used in a while or have been hoarding for one reason or another. I participated in the challenge last week too. This week's challenge was to use some of your oldest ribbon.
I made this one a get well card. It seems I have needing alot of those lately. This dang flu has everyone down and out. I found this cute little Nurse Mouse online during one of my many searches for free digis. I used my colored pencils and OMS to color the image. I trimmed it down, rounded the edges and inked them in Bahama Blue by Memento. I matted it onto a piece of stormy blue card stock by Colorbok. The sentiment is from Dee's Bugaboo Boutique. She has tons of Scripture Verses and Quotes on her site. I found this one and thought it was very fitting for a get well card. I did the same techniques to the sentiment as I did the focal image. I used two pieces of scrap DP for the background. They are both from DCWV. I used a 6x6 card base made from Cornflower Blue from Colorbok. The piece of blue glitter ribbon was hiding way down in the bottom of my blue ribbon bucket. I thought the corners needed something extra so I added some cream colored flat back pearls to finish off this card.
I sure hope you liked this card. Thanks so much for stopping in today and I pray blessings upon each and every one of you. God bless you.
Journey along with me as I travel the road of my life. It may not be always an exciting journey, but it is mine and I will live it to the fullest.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your path. Proverbs 3:5-6
