I have a friend who just had a total knee replacement. This is the card I made for her
I usually use this sentiment and the duct tape for masculine cards but I wanted to see if I could do a feminine version. I think it worked very well with the pink patterned paper. I did the sentiment on the computer and die cut it with a label die. The background paper was first embossed with a rough feeling E/F. It is hard to detect in the picture but you can feel the texture. Then I tore the paper into 3 strips. I anchored them with 3 strips of real duct tape. I attached the sentiment with a bandaid cut in half. The bear is an old one from my stash. I stamped, colored and secured it to the front. I cut a narrow strip of surgical gauze and tied it in a knot and secured it to the bear's "knee" with a glue dot.
The layout is this sketch from Freshly Made Sketches

ReplyDeleteYou are so clever and creative! Love the duct tape, the bandaid and the surgical tape. I would never have thought of all of those, but they're perfect for wishing your friend a quick recovery. I hope she's not in too much discomfort and that she heals quickly and completely!
