This is my second post of the day.....If you're looking for the Shopping Our Stash challenge, it's below.
We have another great {Pin}spirational Challenge for you beginning today - with another wonderful inspiration photo! Be sure and stop by our blog and be inspired by all the wonderful cards from the Design Team - plus we have a couple of new DT members and you'll love seeing their creations.
I can always use Get Well cards - either for adults or children - and just never seem to have enough. I used the whale image from an old SU set called Pun Fun and paper pieced him in some polka got paper. The background was embossed using a Cuttlebug embossing folder.
Check out those waves folks!!! LOL! Since I don't have any type of punch or die to make waves I decided to do them myself with the left over pieces from a scallop edge punch........you know after you use the punch and all those little pieces fall on the floor....then you step on them and find them three rooms over???? Yes, this is what those waves are!
Thanks for stopping by...............

You're too funny, glad to know I'm not the only one dragging around scraps! Terrific card and the wave technique is definitely something I will try! Super card!
This is a fab card Lynn... that colour combo is wonderful! Love that whale and very clever waves. Man, I wish I could tie a bow like that!
You know that I've looked at those pieces for years, but never "saw" waves until this morning. Thanks for that great idea. This card will definitely make someone feel better in an instant.
Have a great week.
TOO CUTE!!! Love the paper pieced whale and what a fun image he looks so happy. Great idea for the waves too.
I laughed out loud reading the description of your waves, that is too funny. And of course I have those all around my house too! Your card is adorable, I love the polka dot whale.
Lynn, this card is delightfully fun! I love the way you used the "extra" from the border cut to make the waves. Very clever!!!
Great fun card Lynn, I like the image the embossing the sentiment and the ribbon.

You're way too creative! Love how you think outside the box!!! That polka dotted whale is the cutest and I'm drooling over that ribbon...

Great use of the punch scraps! I usually look at mine to see what I can use them for, but then....they end up in the trash!
I love the whale on PP! I hardly ever use this embossing folder! I should get it out!!!
Great ribbon too!

Perfect ! Just perfect ! I love the blue whale!!
Really cute! And what a genius idea to use those negative scallops for waves.
Fun and punny, Lynn! Love the blue polka dots! Great embossing.
Fabulous card. So creative with the way you made the waves and I love the polka dots on the whale.
What a fantastic idea for waves, Lynn! Who needs a wave punch if you have a scallop? I'm going to remember that. This is so bright and happy. Sure to make anyone feel happier and better!
Aww, Super Get whale card Lynn! I't sure to bring a smile to the recipients face, no matter how poorly they are feeling! 8-) Love how you did the waves! so clever Lady! Love it! 8-)
