How crazy is that?!? I needed to get a Get Well card made for my mom before the postman came today, because she's having surgery tomorrow. When I decided to take a quick peek at Cav's Demonstratable Cards challenge from yesterday, the challenge was to make a Get Well card using the color blocking technique. PERFECT!
I don't use this technique very often (in fact, there's a possibility that I've never used it before), but I certainly might start. Super fun, and I was so excited to be accomplishing my goal and completing a challenge at the same time! TFL & HUGS!

Your card is stunning. The colors are just amazing and the stamp set you used is one of my favorites. So glad you made this card; so we could all be inspired by its cheerfulness.
Thanks for sharing.

Like the 5 millionth card that I LOVE using that butterfly! Man! I have never regretted not getting a stamp set as much as this one.
But, I digress. Your card: it is really cool. I love how the black background behind the oranges and yellows mimics the butterfly patterns.
