Masculine Get Well Card

I made a masculine card this week for a friend who is having a knee operation tomorrow.  Rather than make a 'Get Well Soon' card to send after the op, I decided to make a 'Good Luck' card and wish him a speedy recovery when I write my message inside.  

I made a Joy Fold card, keeping the design fairly CAS.  The image is Dr Digi's 'Night Nurse Nina' digi stamp.  I coloured the image with Promarkers and used Memory Box 'Stitched Rectangles' to die cut the image and navy blue mat.  The patterned card is from Limetree Craft.  A white brad keeps the card closed.... so that's one less brad in my 'brad mountain'! 😉

This photos shows the card open and I added a plaster inside, using a die from the Sue Wilson 'Feel Better Soon' set of dies, for added interest.

I am joining in the following challenges:

Ike's World Challenge #121 ~ F for More Than One Fold/Anything Goes

    What a good idea to send this card before the 'event' rather than waiting until later. This is a brilliant image which I'm sure it will make the recipient smile.

    Great get well card. I wonder how many of us have a "brad mountain"? I know I have enough. More than enough.

    This is a really great joy fold card Liz and love the quirky nurse, and the added plaster with the heart you have used inside is just perfect, and the blue spots and gingham papers work well too. x
