The Paper Players #255 ~ Get Well!

Hello lovelies! Are you ready for this week's challenge at the Paper Players? Sandy has a terrific sketch for you to try. I happen to love it and this is what I came up with.



I pulled out some of my October Afternoon paper that I have hoarded away!! I just love the creamy doilies, aqua background and tiny red flowers. The stripes are on the reverse side, how great is that! I die cut one of my Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Tags then added a PTI Flower Fusion #10 and a couple of sprigs from my PTI Turning a New Leaf set. A little sentiment and red bow finish it up. Easy peasy!!



I look forward to seeing the beautiful creations in our gallery. I hope you have time to get inky and join us this week! Take care ~Lisa

It is too beautiful to be described as 'easy peasy', Lisa! I adore the October Afternoon papers - very retro feeling to me. My mom might have had a cute apron made from fabric just like this ... just love your card!
