Making a Handmade Get Well Card Using Copic Sketch Markers and House Mouse Rubber Stamp

Hope everyone is having a great week so far.  Today I needed to make a get well card and wanted a change of pace from using my Cricut Expression to using rubber stamps.  I knew that I had the cutest House Mouse stamp that would be perfect to use with Copic Sketch markers.

So I stamped the image of white card stock using Memento Rich Cocoa ink.  Colored in the image with some Copic Sketch markers.

I then cut the stamped image to 4 1/2 ” x  2 3/4″ and with my EK Success corner punch I rounded the edges.  I placed that layer onto a burgundy piece of cardstock and again rounded the edges with the corner punch.  I adhered them all together using the Ad-tech permanent bond tape runner.

I almost forget, for the ice cube.  I used a clear/blue tinted embossing marker then added clear embossing powder and using my heat gun melted the powder to give the ice cube a shiny look.

This was a fun and also quick handmade card to make and hoping that it will make our friend feel a little better knowing that we are thinking of him.

A Great Cricut Card Idea for a Get Well Card Using Life’s A Beach Cartridge

Happy Tuesday Everyone ~ Hope you are all having a Wonderful Day

Today I needed to make a get well card for a dear friend who is going through a rough patch with his health.  I’m sure that he is receiving alot of cards with your typical message inside.  I on the other hand wanted to make him a handmade get well card to definitely put a smile on his face, so I decided to make a Get Whale Soon Card.

I cut the whale with my Cricut Expression machine using the Life’s A Beach Cricut cartridge, along with the border of waves.

Then I used my Cricut Gypsy for the inside message using the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge for the font and the welding function to attach the letters together.

I had to give this card some “bling” so I used Baby Blue Stickles to add to the waves, and also made some polka dots on the letters with my Zig writer marker.

I hope that this card is what the doctor ordered to put a smile on his face.  Hope you like it too!
