Heard you Got a Bug! Feel Better Soon.

Happy Monday! Hope the day has been good to you.
Although I don't make new year's resolutions,
I have challenged myself to try and use up some of my crafty
 stash (old, new unopened items, and started but never finished
creations).   In keeping with that personal challenge, I found this 
watercolored panel in the pile things I've colored but 
never actually made it on to a finished creation.   
I had never really loved how it turned out but couldn't seem
to throw it away.  Time to challenge myself to use it. 
Then I dug through my stash of (very neglected) embossing folders 
and found one that I thought would work well.  Here's what
I ended up creating to share with you today. 
 
 
The original watercolored panel was much larger. I cut it down 
to fit on the embossed panel and added the punny sentiment. 
Suddenly I liked it much better! Funny how that happens.
I never seem to have "Get Well" or "Feel Better Soon" cards
on hand when I need them.  But I'll have one now! 

Really so glad I used this panel instead of tossing it.
And I had honestly forgotten how satisfying it is to use 
an embossing folder!  Instant gratification with a few
cranks of the handle!  Pretty sure I'll be using some of the
other embossing folders in that box soon too. 

I'm entering this in the following challenges:

Thanks for popping in to visit me today!
