Get Well Card



I really like the cards like this that I have seen and wanted to try it for myself, I am glad that I did. I used Pick a Petal and Sincere Salutations from Stampin Up. I also used their Key Tag punch, to give it a mat I cut a rectangle a little larger and then used my corner rounder the round the corners.
