Get Well Spoon

   Giving Some Sugar to Your Loved Ones
         This Cold and Flu Season?
   Here's a Spoonful of Sugar to Help
         The Medicine Go Down.
 

When sniffles and achy bones derail holiday cheer, creating a light heart can make the experience bearable.  This "Get Well" card uses many lovely items from Altered Pages!!
 
 
(Here are the ingredients I "cooked" with):
Clear Embossing Powder
Cardstock with Printed Sentiments
Brown paper bag scrap

Resized image, printed on cardstock, adhered to burlap.
(Notice I glued the burlap up over the Merry Christmas sentiment.)
 
***
Coated spoon in pigment ink and embossed with clear powder.
(I heated and covered with powder 5 times to make it glossy.)
 
***
Glitter to fill the specimen bottle and glued in spoon for sugar.
(A drop of glue in the bottom, fill, and a drop on top to seal.)
***
Assemble parts and sentiments, adhere into place.
(Isn't this so sweet?!)

***
Adhere printed sentiment onto paper bag
and into the inside of card.
(Be creative, use your imagination for those you care for.)

Get Well Spoon!

    I know this would cheer me up if I got the flu! I am thinking why not put on a small bag and putting in instant chicken soup and a small pkg of tissues!

    This is truly a thoughtful gift! Anyone would like to get it and chase away the flu blues ~ To add to Jackie's thoughts, maybe include a tea bag!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
