Get Well Soon - Laura's Sketch 32 and Use It Challenge

This week, I combined sketch 32 by Laura at 2 Sketches 4 You with Use It Challenge #22. I thought that they worked perfectly together and so off to my scrapbook room I went to create a card. For the Use It Challenge #22 (brought to us by the fabulous June Houck), we had to use 1. A New Technique - one we haven't tried before and I have never stamped on ribbon/fabric before......for this card, I stamped on the Twill Tape from Stampin' Up!®. I really like how it turned out and will definitely do it again. 2. Use a Virgin Stamp - I haven't used this Lots of Bots stamp set from Stampin' Up!®....my first purchase from the new catalog. 3. Use Papers You Haven't Used Before - I just bought this Basic Gray cardstock from Stampin' Up!® and just opened the pack for this card. I haven't ever used gray cardstock on a card before this and had reluctance to even try it until I bought this stamp set and I love how it looks with these papers and stamps.

Patterned Paper: Manchester (retired)
Ink: Basic Gray
Punches: 1 3/4" Circle, 3/4" Circle, Spiral edge
