    FYI – per my personal experience – regarding the sticky mat. Remove the mat from the card (not the card from the mat) and you should have less card curling. Also, love this card; the colors the simplicity all so beautiful.

    Ha! I finally figured out the Word Bubble was the key to finding the comments! LOL I absolutely love your card and the colors you chose for the leaves – unconventional, but gorgeous! Now I want that stamp/stencil/die set even though I don’t really need them. But like my hubby says, what does “need” have to do with it?

    Another fun, colorful creation! I love the Fantastic Flowers Stamp an Stencil set. One word of caution about your new year goals: be careful with “over-organizing.” I recently moved across country and decided it would be a good time to reorganize my supplies. Long story short: I’m still looking for my sequins…

    Great card. Love the colors you used and the fact that this design can be for masculine or feminine cards. I never seem to make get well cards either. Seems like when you need one there’s either time to make one or I’m just not feeling creative so can’t come up with a design. Guess I need to start making some to keep on hand and this design would be perfect. Thanks for the inspiration!
