I made this little get well card with the thought of using it for a man type card...men are so hard to make cards for! I used some Paper Loft paper and added some twine and little sewing in order to 'man it up' some!
I colored the poor little sickie, cut him out and added him to the front of the card with pop dots. I added a couple brown pearls and sewed for the first time in ages...made me remember how much I love sewing. My poor machine is tucked away in a corner and doesn't get used much anymore.
I used the new Deconstructed Sketch #116
You can find this Inky Antics Sick Turtle set at Inspiration Emporium.
Thanks for stopping by today!

I hope you are managing to get a little rest in between all of your activities - you youngsters have so much energy!!! Now if I see a sick turtle, I will tell him that you have made him a very cute get well card and that he should check his mail!

Great take on the sketch Sue! Love your coloring and colors. Cute cute cute!
Aww, poor little sick turtle! Very cute for a get well card, and will work especially well for a guy. Great use of the sketch, too!
Adorable adorable adorable.....oh yes.....manly card are hard and I don't usually have them when I need them. You did a great job and the choice of colors is definitely manly. I keep my sewing machine out to make it easier to want to use.
Aw, how could the recipient NOT get well with this darling little guy wishing them well. Love the circles on the side, and your choice of colors - yes, very good for a man - The stitching really looks great. xo
Awwwww! How cute is he? (I love tortoises and turtles), fab papers and layout and I love the stitching
