It's Monday and we're starting a new week with a new DRS Designs blog challenge!! This week the DT was challenged to make get well cards.
Here is mine...images by DRS Designs...
and the inside...
When you're feeling under the weather, young or old, what could be better than an interactive card! While looking through the resource section on SCS, I can across this tutorial for a pop-up accordian card. So quick and easy...don't let the looks of it fool you! It is a little bit thick though so you might need to put it in a padded envelope, or better yet hand deliver it.
I kept the front of the card pretty simple using just the stamped image in brown and then the first part of the sentiment in black. It is all tied together with twill ribbon and a button. The fun is when you open it! I thought the new Dustin Pike releases by DRS would be the perfect pick me up. The font and words of the sentiment(F076) itself lends itself to kids or kids at heart! I added some grass (E059) to the half circles that the animals are adhered to as well as the bases of the circles. This fun polka dot leaf (B343) was rock and rolled in light and dark green, cut out and then adhered throughout the inside for a jungly look!
Be sure to check out the DRS blog for more inspiration from the design team. You'll be inspired to increase your stash of get well cards and every person on your list will be covered!
Thanks for checking in...
See you soon...

Cathy, this is awesome! I love how the front is uncolored & coordinated with the "down in the dumps" sentiment, yet the inside is colored, cheerful, & a pop-up! Wow! This would cheer anyone right up!
Oh wow Cathy, this is supa dupa cute!!!
MAKES ME WISH I WERE SICK JUST TO BE ABLE TO RECEIVE A CARD LIKE THIS.....
Cathy, this is INCREDIBLE!!!
