Get Well Lisa

Welcome back to Cards by Kay this is a very special Blog hop for a very special gal who has been feeling a bit out of soughts lately and we all just want her to know we are thinking of her and hope she is feeling better soon ! So to the lovely Lisa Tyrell sit back and relax and enjoy your hop !

I have done something a little different instead of the standard card I have covered a note book for Lisa !


The stamp is a Smeared and Smudged exclusive rubber stamp and the back ground paper is from Delicious Doodles I have stuck on a couple of ting spiders and used a spider web die.
Lisa I do hope you are feeling better and I hope you enjoy your hop ! Just know that we all care about you and wish you nothing but the best !
