This is for two challenges. For the WT challenge we were to use cork on our card. The second challenge is for the TSC to make a get well card and not to use any pink! Well I put thinking of you on my card because I did not have a get well that would fit in the space correctly. This can be used for a get well card.
My base is something in my stash. The cork is also from my stash. The toucans are from Graphic 45. I backed it with Basic Black and used Antique Linen on the edges for a little distressing. Stamped my sentiment and used Daffodil seam binding. I wanted to pull the yellow out of the birds. I love the Graphic 45 papers with the tags. You can do so much with them.
Thanks for looking and hope you like my card.
If you want to play along on the TSC challenge to make a get well card use the Keyword TSC0118.

Sylvia, a wonderful get well)thinking of you) card. (I usually prefer to send TOY cards rather than GWs myself.) Your image is lovely and the choice of colors beautiful.

Sylvia, this is so totally a sweet of the toucans!! Using cork brings out the brown branch and postmark and the green in the image is mirrored in your card base and ties the whole card together so well. I concur with Sallie that Thinking of You is a nice sentiment for a Get Well card and I am sure Tater will agree! You had your thinking cap on when you did this one!! Working on mine now -
