Get Well Challenge

Over at Paper Patch Crafts there is a challenge going on to create a Get Well card using this Sketch:

I recently learned how to make paper lilies, and so I wanted to try my hand at these for this card.  Here is what I came up with:
I used the McGill Star Lily Punch and the Starburst to create the flowers and the leaves.  I will likely do a tutorial on it soon.  I had to improvise a little bit because I didn't have all the tools required to make it, but in the end I think it worked out.  The font is one I found for free online.  I can't recall the name of it, but I loved all the flourishes of it and think it turned out quite beautiful for the effect I was going for.  The colors seem a little muted in the photo...I can't find my camera battery charger anywhere and so had to rely on my phone camera to take the picture.  Fingers crossed I find that charger soon!!

The Challenge is going on now through March 4th.  She has a really nice prize for the winning card...This Echo Park Kit!  Come and join the fun!  Tell her I sent you. :)
