Funky Fairy's Challenge -- Get Well Soon card

Check out this Get Well card I made for the Funky Fairy's Challenge! Doesn't it just make you want to get sick so I can send it to you? Just kidding. I like to pretend that I invented this cardmaking technique but I bet it's been done before. I stamp an image twice-- one stays black and white and I cut random pieces out of the other, color them, and layer it onto the card. It is a really neat effect and saves me from having to color for hours on end. The scan job is terrible (seems to be the trend today) so you can't tell very well that there is about a 1/4" white border around the whole card.

As usual, I used some liquid glass on the card. The ice cube needed to look shiny!

Just for the record, I know the coolest place to get House Mouse stamps at the best prices. The man's name is Dick and he has a fabulous website. Even if you don't order much, he sends the funniest newsletters EVER.
