Hello everyone!

It’s Kathrin here today, as I usually am on the 21st, to share something new I made. We’re in the middle of winter and a lot of people around me got the flu. So I am in need of a few get well cards but also wanted to do something a little bit different. Then I got reminded of those cards that included a hankerchief and came up with this:

It’s a card that includes a small box holding two hankerchiefs. So if you’re reading my card and are in bad need of a hankerchief you just have to pull one out…

I used the Letter Context V260 stam in the background and also one of the elements from the Scrap and Mixed Media Kit 2 V742. I stamped it on white cardstock using brown ink.

In the lower right corner I also stamped the smallest of the Glass Bottles V5 and turned it into a medicine bottle by adding a little label and a red cross cut from red cardstock.

The saying (get well soon in german) is from the German Lyrics V739. I just cut it out in a square and added a sma red heart.

And on this photo you can see how the hankerchiefs are already pulled out a bit so the recipient can see that these are real and be used.

The box on this card is easy to make – measure the hankerchiefs and add 0,5 cm to each width and heigth. Then add another 0,5 cm all around for the height of the little box and another 1 cm for the flaps to glue the box down on the card. Punch an oval out of the middle section, score and fold the box, cut off the extras on the flaps, add the  hankerchiefs and glue the box on your card.

So, I am hoping you are all doing well and aren’t in need of a card like mine. See you all a little later today for another project of mine.

Hugs, Kathrin
