Fabulous Flamingo Friday: Get Well Soon!

Woo! It’s Fabulous Flamingo Friday again!  What a great way to start the weekend.  Today’s project is one that I created for my Team Leader, who recently had surgery.  Because she lives on the other side of the city, I wanted to send a Get Well card to her, and bring a smile to her face.  Flamingos do that!  They bring smiles to the faces of everyone I know.  Probably because they think of the loony flamingo lady they happen to purchase their stamps from.

Anyhoo, Jenn is a wonderful mentor and a source of inspiration to everyone that she meets.  It’s only appropriate that she receive a Big Pink Bird card, because these are reserved for the best sort of people.

Wendy's Little Inklings: Fabulous Flamingo, Get Well Card

I was hunting for a ‘get well’ sentiment, and realized that I don’t have very many.  Fortunately Teeny Tiny Wishes came to the rescue with a sentiment that was THE perfect size for the card.  Once I stamped and punched it out, I attached it to a sticky note and punched the ends off so that it was slightly shorter than the Pool Party card stock that is right behind it.  An easy way to give it a different mat.

One last note… I added a bit of ‘water’ to the inside of the card, just so that it wasn’t completely plain.  Fun and easy!
