Today's card uses Jen del Muro's Sketch For You To Try 6/13/09. I'm borrowing my sister-in-law Norene's new Sizzlits Dies - Daisy Flower and Little Leaves. The die from Little Leaves is turned upside down, and a couple of the small leaves are cut off to make it look more like a flower stem. The designer paper is Walk In The Park and the Baja Breeze Corduroy Brads are both from the current Occasions Mini Catalog. The sales period for this catalog ends June 30, so if you haven't gotten everything you want out of it there's still time! The "get well wishes" sentiment is from the new stamp set called Teeny Tiny Wishes in the new Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog coming out July 1.
