This is my Mom's get well/better card. I found out last Wed, that she tripped and shattered her elbow. She had to have reconstructive surgery to fix it. So I thought that she needed a really nice card to cheer her up, and I had just the card idea rolling around in my head
I used Flourishes "Waterlilies" stamp set colored in with Tombows. The card shape is a Gate Fold with a cut of of a Nestie Lacy Circle to embellish the opening. The Lily is on poped up on popdots on a smaller Nestie Circle with Nestie Fancy Tags under the Circle die cut.

I am sorry your Mom got hurt that bad. Sounds painful.
Your gatefold card is absolutely stunning! I might have to case the circular window in the center. That is so beautiful!
Hugs and smiles
