I wanted to make a Thank You Card for the lovely Nurses at Sarum Road BMI Hospital in Winchester who took phenomenal care of me before and after my surgery. I thought I would go ahead and do it now after seeing the current sketch challenge at Emma's Cards UK. Also, I have just started doing a bit more than drawing digi stamps with Serif Craft Artist Pro, so I thought this card would be a good chance to have a quick play with some of the digi kits.
Anyway, without further ado, here is the card.....
I used CAP for pretty much the entire card other than the paper flower and the 'dew drop' embellishments. The image is from Some Odd Girl, and she is colored with Flex Markers. I was brave and printed her uncolored directly on the designed card, so good thing I didn't mess up.
Although I am just finding my way around the software, I certainly can see the potential for hours and hours of crafty fun with Craft Artist Professional. I will just have to be patient and try not to forget about the Dr's orders to only sit for a max of 20 minutes while I am playing!
As you might have guessed, I would like to enter this card in the current Sketch Challenge at Emmas Cards UK.
I hope the nurses like it. I will be giving it to them when I next see the doctor. Hopefully I will be up to doing a little baking by that time so the card can be accompanied by some cupcakes. I really am so thankful and impressed with their hard work and dedication. I definitely would not want to trade with them.
Ok, well my 20 minutes is just about up, so I shall post this and link up to the challenge at Emmas cards. I hope you like the card, and would love your comments.
Thanks for looking, and I would love it if you could come back soon.
Take care today and always,
Denise xx
