Get Ill Soon Blog Hop

Welcome to my blog. Hi there. I don't always welcome people to my blog by vomiting, but today is a first for me. You see, I am taking part in the first ever Get Ill Soon blog hop.




If you'd like to start at the beginning of the hop, start here: The Crooked Stamper (<--click to go).

I have to admit something, when I first heard about this very unusual theme, my first thought was to not walk, but... RUN LIKE HELL far, far away to my nearest exit. What could I possibly do that would be worthy of an Auntie Princess inspired "Get Ill Soon" idea?

This all came about by a super crafty & hilarious bunch of women on Twitter of whose company I am so lucky to have fallen in with (please go to The Crooked Stampers Blog for the history on how Auntie Princess started the whole thing). But the idea in question was to come up with a card that says "Get Ill Soon". Twisted, yes? I love it!

Get Ill Soon... Hmmm... I thought what do I have in my stash that I could put on a card that would make you think of being sick? Okay, this is going to be tough. I have flies...Malaria! YES! I have blobs...Snot! YES! Woo-hoo! I have letters to spell out "achoo". I am so in business. Now to put it all together in to some type of cohesive card-making nicety. That will be my challenge.

Hope the card that follows meets the standard of the Twitter gals:




Now, please venture forth onto your next Get Ill Soon card by the fabulous Dreena at her blog: Prairie Papercrafts and Stamps (<-- click to go!)

Hope you're illin' soon.
