There's something about card making that I always find really difficult, so it was with some surprise that I made a little card that I actually like. I think I'm starting to get into my card making groove - a little like scrapbooking it's all about becoming happy with your own style.
Today I'm sharing a little card for my sister who's a bit fed up with being ill and off work. A 'Get Well Soon' card didn't seem appropriate but, luckily, the Sophie's Sentiments set from Lawn Fawn has something that will work for almost any card.
I've used the 'Thinking Of You' sentiment, along with one of the stamps from the Naturally You set - which is just peeking out behind the embellishments. This set is only available in stores, so head on over to Make The Day Special and snap yours up. You'll be the envy of all your friends!
The papers and embellishments are all from this month's Counterfeit Kit - including the little ladybird. Isn't she cute? So, all you beautiful blogreaders, have a wonderful weekend x
This card is beautiful, yet it has a charming character! Well done :)
