Get Well Soon!

Hello and happy, happy Friday! It's been a quick and crazy busy week with the start of school! I am one TIRED teacher! Oh, my how will I get through a five day week? Once the routine is set it will get better! I'm determined that it will! Right now I should be doing the school work I brought home, but I'd rather jot a note to you!
Now, on to another job! Nursing! My sister is a nurse and I think I will be changing the sentiment and sending her this as an "I'm proud of you" card! She will love it, I think! This is #307 Nurse Tilda.
She is so darn cute with her sparkly medicine! She is available in both sizes at Diana's wonderful store Magnolia-licious AND Dr. Edwin can be preordered! I colored her with copics and put her on this great Grand Nestability. I'm not so good at the bouquets, but I gave it my all on this one. Maybe the leaves and ferns are not the best green for the card? Oh well! The small sentiment is one I bought at a recent stamp show near Buffalo. Very handy for card fronts. I was too nervous to sew all these curves so I went with marker stitching instead. The beautiful paper is from My Mind's Eye's Lost and found collection (Blush-sweet bouquet and Breeze Dream) These are both from 12x12 sheets, but there is also a 6x6 pad! Gotta love that!

I also plan to enter this card in to the following challenges:


and

Cute Card Thursday -something you find in an office (mine is a Doctor's office!)

Wishing you a lovely weekend! (Especially on the eastern part of our state of NY!)
