The Wish-RAK Group is having a New Year Card Round Up - Cards for the Troops this holiday weekend. Here's my card for MindyYoung's Get Well/Thank You Challenge #15. I'll write a special note to a recuperating service member. Our challenge was to use Ruby Red, Barely Banana and Not Quite Navy. Thanks to bottomphish for the Striped Lighthouse image by Lockhart Stamp Co.
I colored the image with my Blender Pen and Barely Banana, Ruby Red, Not Quite Navy, Sahara Sand, Going Gray and More Mustard ink pads. The lines in the sand are highlighted with a Star Dust Gel Pen. This panel is layered onto Ruby Red cs. Since this card is going to a service member in the hospital, we are not allowed to add fibers or other embellishments that may fall off. That said, I knew this card needed some texture, so I crimped a piece of Not Quite Navy and adhered it to the Barely Banana cardstock.
I hope this card will bring a smile to someone's face, and they'll feel knowing that someone is thinking of them.
