STV15MON30 - For Ruth

Hello, and welcome to another StampTV Weekly Challenge. As many of you know, Gina's mom Ruth just underwent emergency heart valve replacement surgery. She is doing well, and on the way to recovery. But wouldn't it be fun to flood her with well wishes in the form of thinking of you cards? So my challenge to you is to make any sort of get well or thinking of you card. If you would like to send your card to Ruth, here is the address:

Ruth Aurelio

C/O Gina K Designs, LLC
5401 South 9th Street

Milwaukee, WI 53221

Here is my sample:

I used the Lovely Labels 1 stamp set, stamped the image in Wild Wisteria, and then through the magic of the MISTI, stamped it again with Versamark and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Then I colored the flowers with Zig Clean Color Pens and covered them with Stickles. This card is a square 4 1/2" card, and was pretty simple to make.

Here are the Ingredients:

GKD White, Wild Wisteria and Lovely Lavender

Cuttlebug Swiss Dot Embossing Folder

GKD Lovely Labels 1 Stamp Set

GKD Clear Embossing Powder

Zig Clean Color Brush Pens

Stickles

Gems & Ribbon from my Stash

Be sure to upload your project to the Gallery by 8:00 PM CST Sunday,

August 2nd, with the tag STV15MON30

So that's it. Let's send Gina's mom some love. And have some fun creating, can't wait to see what you come up with!!!

I don't know if the tag is working I have uploaded a card already and it isn't showing when I go to the link for the gallery. I can see it when I look up the tag in galleries, just not when I click the link here

The link is showing lower case letters, but the challenge tag name is in upper case letters. That is why your card it not showing up when you press the link for seeing all of the challenge cards.

Cheryl, the MISTI is a wonderful stamping tool that lets you stamp the same image over and over again without moving it.
