Wishing you well 28

Hi there! Today I have a card to share that I created for my dear son who recently had oral surgery. I'm joining along with this week's PTI Make It Monday: 2016 A La Carte challenge where I chose to give the Chalkboard Technique inspired by Betsy's card HERE.

For the focal point, I used a couple of images from the Round & Round stamp set along with a sentiment from the Everyday Classics stamp set:

For sketch inspiration, I'm playing along with the current Freshly Made Sketches challenge

and for color inspiration, I'm playing along with the Color Throwdown challenge:

Up next, I have an 8" x 10" oil painting featuring a tulip garden:

I'm linking my painting up to Paint Party Friday and 30 in 30 Day 13:

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be Sweet ;)
