I guess I'm in a Spring mood. The weather today, in northeast Georgia, is to be in the 80 degree range. I guess you would call it an early summer. Now, I just have to wait and see what it will be tomorrow.
Today's card is for all of you great members who are trying to shake off a winter virus. I hope you feel better soon and this card will brighten your day.
"Get Well Soon"
The image used today is from "Just-Rite Stamps". I love their stamps, they are so diverse, and I use the alot as you have noticed.
The mats where cut with Spellbinder dies in three different sizes. They were;
- Petite Oval Large S4-138
- Petite Scalloped Oval Large S4-139
The image was colored with Copic Markers;
- Roses; R22,R24,R27,R29
- Leaves; YG05,YG09
The Roses were coated with Crystal Lacquer, that where you get the little glare from. I decorated the background paper with a little red Stickles for bling.
Believe it or not I did tie the small yellow bow on the bouquet. But, I cheated and used the "Bow Easy"
Hope you enjoy the card and will leave a comment.
Have a GREAT DAY!!!

Beautiful Card Bob! I live in the area that was hit hard by 2 tornadoes causing 4 deaths and destroying many homes New years eve in Missouri. That is completely unusual for this area. Since then, we've had snow after snow then sleet. We had a wonderful week of 70 degree weather, now wear are into the early spring rains and storms already. This area is so depressed with weather, I can easily see changing the sentiment to this card to something like....it will get better or something like that for some folks in this area. I may have to make a few as I know some folks who could use a smile.

Bob,
Your coloring of the roses is awesome. The shading just makes them pop and look so real. I was looking at the roses so long and almost missed your background paper. Just beautiful.
Love your card.
