Week 251: MEDICINE

 

It's time for a new cue word and with some of winter's sick bugs hanging on in some places despite spring's arrival, a few get well wishes in the gallery may just be what the doctor ordered!

As always, remember the following CAS guidelines when creating your design:

  1. One main image
  2. Lots of open space, uncluttered
  3. Limited layers & embellishments
  4. Quick & easy to recreate (Note: It may take a while to create a design you like, but once you have that design, making more should be a piece of cake!)


Serendipity Stamps is returning as our wonderful sponsor and this week's winner will receive a $20 gift certificate to their online store!  From today through Sunday, June 4, Serendipity is offering a flash sale on the Sick Puppy stamp set with 20% off!  Be sure and claim this adorable set for yourself!

  1. Just placed my card. Hope you like it. Had to cover up an mistake with chocolate finger print, so I covered it up with 3 pearls.
