Sending Hugs

I have had this Stampavie: Ruffles Get Well  for several years and have only used it once, so when one of my grand nieces broke her arm on the school playground, I knew it was the perfect image for a her card!!
The image was stamped with Memento Black ink and coloured with copic markers. The image was fussy cut so that it could be attached to a 2 1/2" Limitless Layer die. Hibiscus Burst card stock was cut with the scalloped circle die from Tinsel and Tags Kit to create a mat for the focal image.
The white card front was stamped with Hibiscus Burst and New Leaf inks using Polka Dot Basics. Hibiscus Burst was used as the card base.

Scripty Hugs die (Lawn Fawn) was cut multiple times 
and stacked to create dimension.
I cut a curved banner and then stamped it with 
"SENDING YOU" (Swoosh)
attached it to the card front and added "hugs" on top!!


I finished the inside of the card with a small circle panel.
Inside:
Flowers and Leaves: To You From Me
Limitless Layers 1 3/4" Circles
Hibiscus Burst Card stock
 Sentiments: Quilter's Sampler

Such a sweet image, Karen, glad you took it out to play (although not glad about the broken arm, of course). I love your coloring - so cheerful for your grand niece!
