Get Well Tissues

My mom asked me to make a get well card for her neighbor who just had surgery on her nose. She was hoping for a tissue box, and I'm happy to have pulled this card together.


There are some great stamps with noses or tissue boxes out there, but I don't have any. So I had to think outside the box and create a 'box' for on the card. I cut out a template, added some score lines, punched out a circle opening for the tissues, and voila!! I'm really happy with how cute it is - I definitely will need to make a few more for my stash!

Details:
Stamps - sentiment (All Night Media)
Paper - DCWV Green Stack, Real Red, Kraft, white
Ink - Real Red
Accessories - Kleenex

Thanks for stopping by!!

This is a great idea for a get well card. I love it and may have to borrow your design sometime. Maybe you could do a tutorial on it.

Great job 'pulling it all together' makes me think of pulling a tissue out of the box! How cool to come up with this!!
