Well Wishes and a Challenge for Me!

I needed to make a get well card for my aunt. She had to have her total hip replacement redone. OUCH!!! She's such a tiny petite lady that they had to use a child-size artificial hip on her. Hopefully this time the surgery will work.

My challenge was to use the Always Amethyst decorative paper. I have a lot of time working with this paper. I did find that if I put the black next to the decorative paper instead of the colored card stock it looks better. But wen you put the colored card stock next to the decorative paper it's not as vivid.

So I'd have to say that this time it worked out and I like the colors. And there was another challenge here too. I needed to incorporate some Hodgepodge Hardware on the card too. I buy this stuff and rarely use it.

Now my card is ready to go out in the mail tomorrow!

This card was made entirely of Stampin' Up! products. To view more cards made entirely of Stampin' Up! products click here.
