For the Allsorts Challenge this week Liz has asked us for **Get Well or Sympathy Cards** - always handy to have one or two of these ready to hand if needed. Of course there is, as always, the *Anything Goes* option. I decided to make a Get Well card in the CAS style so I cut a panel of white card to fit onto a square card and started by stamping the sentiment and a background image using grey Versafine ink. I then die cut some butterflies in the same white card and these were painted using some glimmer watercolours which I've had for many years although I realise they'd not been used for a while. I die cut a slightly larger square from light grey card to tone with the stamping. Assembled the card, adding some tiny blue gems and that's it - a CAS Get Well card for the challenge.
Background Stamp - one of a set of mixed stamps from Amazon
Butterflies - Memory Box
Sentiment - from my favourite set of magazine freebie sentiment stamps (years old)
