My Craft Spot "Get Well Soon" Challenge

I made two of these cards: One for my mom-she had a double knee replacement the summer before I got married; and One for a friend of the family that recently had back surgery.

On a funny note: when my dad saw the card, he said it must have been a mistake, that's why I sent it to my mom. He didn't "get" the fact that the turtle was supposed to be upside down! LOL

The turtle is from Walk In My Garden and all the paper is DCWV. I'm not sure about the sizes, though. Sorry!

My newest set of OWH cards

So, this is my next set of cards for Operation Write Home (http://www.operationwritehome.org/).

I used Walk In My Garden to cut the leaves, I think at 2". Flowers are from Prima, brads from my stash.(Patterned Paper-DCWV Spring Paper Pack)

I cut the label with Preserves. I used 1.5" then used Design Studio to stretch it to 2". I typed the sentiment "thinking of you" to fill the page and then used George & Basic shape to cut a 1.75" circle. I finished the cards off with eyelets and buttons. (Patterned Paper-DCWV Spring Paper Pack)

I used Walk In My Garden to cut the flower in 3 sizes (2", 1.5", 1") and then stacked and stapled them together. I cut 2" tags from Tags, Bags, Boxes & More then stamped them with the "thinking of you" stamp and stapled a piece of ribbon to the tag. (Patterned Paper-DCWV Pocket Full of Posies)

MOJO175/BBTB2 Butterfly

This is a 5x7 card base. Butterfly, bread tag and grass cut from Walk In My Garden. Cloud from ZooBalloo and embossed with D'vine Swirls Cuttlebug folder. (Not sure of the sizes, sorry!) All the edges were inked with Rubber Stampede inks.

I cut the butterfly 3 times and folded the wings up on the middle and top layers and added the jewels for some extra sparkle.

I glued only the bottom part of the grass down, and curled it out. I'm not real crazy about the grass, though.  But, it is, what it is. I'm not sure how I could have done it different. Any ideas?
