A Get Well card for a wounded policeman

 Since the war has begun, 11 days ago, I'm in a creative block. Just can't create.

But yesterday I went the hospital to visit a wounded policeman, who bravery fought Hamas terrorists, and saved another policman's live.

So I made this very CAS card for him. The stamp, whit the saluting soldeir image,  says 'We salute you', and the sentiment on the bottom says 'Quick Recovery'.

One of the Weekly Fav

I'm really not in a mood for crafting. This card was already made last night, and I'm posting it only now.

It was inspired by the colors in The Color Throwdown:

And by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches:

Two 'Get Well' CAS cards, using scraps

 Still playing with reducing my pile of scraps... I adhered some stripes of solid cardstocks, then cut it to a square. Then I cut the square into 2 triangles, and again to triangles.

I played around with the triangles and came up with two very simple, even naive design.

I added shaped corners to two sides of the kraft basis, a sentiment and some enamel dot.

Not too much sofisticated, but they sure can cheer up someone who need it.

AND - I managed to reduce, a little, the pile of scraps! the red and pink scraps were used till there was nothing left to use.... LOL

Here're the two of them together:

Scraps of scraps of scraps cas cards

The pile of scraps is overloaded, and I had to reduce it.

For the 1st card, I trimmed stripes, 1/4" each, in blue and green tones, and adhered them to a white cardstock. 

I trimmed the excess (which provided a nice colored stripes for the 2nd card), and double matted it with black and gold cardstocks.

I die cut the leaves from a white cardstock scrap, leaving some of the inside die cuts, to make it more interesting, and adhered it to the colored panel.

I used more scraps on the back of the panel, for some dimension,  instead of using foam tape, and adhered it to the white basis.

I wanted to keep it as flat as possible, so I didn't add any other embellishment.

I adhered the sentiment sticker (which says, in Hebrew 'Quick Recovery').

As I mentioned before, I was left with colored stripes, so I cut the edges to form a banner stripes, adhered them to a kraft panel, and then matted it with a black cardstock.

Again I used a sticker for my sentiment, and added some star stickers too.

I think the pile of scraped is just slightly reduced, so more work need to be done with those scraps...

Get Well, We Love you - a cas pink card

 I made this card using only solid cardstocks, in pink tones and white.

It's a 'Get Well' card, and the sentiment, a sticker, says, in Hebrew: 'Speedy Recovery, We love you!'.

I really like the bandais I've created, using embossing folder and punches.

It goes for the following challenges:

Diagonal cards - one dp two version

 

One of the Top Cups

at Sunday Stamps

I made two quick cards, with a diagonal design, using only one dp, but using both sides of the paper.

It's from an old Simple Stories collecion, Vintage Bliss, that I have had for ages, and I thought it's time to go back and use some of my old stash.

On both cards I added thin solid cardstock stripes, flower stickers from the collection, and sentiment stickers, which say in Hebrew: "Quick Recovery".

One card is horizontal, while the other is vertical. O both cards I added some glitter enemal dots. I think they're adding a lovely final touch to the cards.

Stacked rectangles - a get well card

 A masculine 'Get Well' card I made, using stacked triangels dies set.

I die cut 3 different sizes of triangels, from 6 solid cardstocks - 3 in blue tones and 3 in brown/earthly tones.

I then stacked the triangles one on the other, to one of the angles, mixing the colors.

I adhered the stacked triangles in a hexagon shape on a very pale blue cardstock, and added two layers of cardstock behind, so it will be raised a little.

The sentiment says in Hebrew: 'Feel better and a quick recovery'.

I made a simple knot from a twine and adhered it between the sentiment and the hexagon. It looks to me as it it's kind of mustache :).

The whole panel was adhered to a kraft basis.

It goes for these challenges:

Speedy Recovery card - CTD meets FMS

 A card I made for two challenges:

Color Throwdown #717 - pink, mustard and green:

At first, this color combination was quite a challenge for me, but then I went for a flowery theme, and it came very easily. In the photo, the 3 small flowers looks a little orange, but IRL thery're much more yellowish than in the photo.

Freshly Made Sektches #560 - a lovely sketch. The circle can be replaced by any shape:

I added the thin strip of mustrad plaid between the two rectangles, as I felt that on my card, the gap really needed it.

The sentiment is a sticker, and it says, in Hebrew: "Always keep your smile, Speedy recovery".

A 'Get Well Soon' card, in warm colors

Honorable Mention at Fusion

On a local FB group, we make and donate cards for a hospital. Usually, there's no limitaion on the sentiment, but this time we were asked to make 'Get Well' cards. 

I used the sketch, only the sketch, from Fusion Card Challenges:

I wanted my card to be with a warm scene, so I stamped the brush strokes in an orange palette. I then stamped over the brush strokes a sketched flower, tied a twine and added a few golden sequins. The sentiment is a sticker.

I was also inspired by the orange/brown cupcakes photo at Cupcake Inspiration:
