It’s Crackerbox Palace Friday and today I am sharing a get well card I made with Crackerbox Palace stamps and a background technique called Batik. I was reminded of this technique by this tutorial that I pinned. I heat embossed Crackerbox Palace’s band-aids several times on a white cardstock piece with white embossing powder. Then I bent the piece in many directions causing the “cracks”. I sponged several colors of green distress ink all over the piece, distressed the edges and attached to a dark green card base. I stamped the sweet Get Well Bear on white cardstock and also on kraft and blue dp. I paper pieced the bear and his hospital gown and colored the rest, then attached him with pop dots.

What a cute image. I am an RN so know about "gown gap". I love the batik background. Your card will surely bring cheer to someone ill.
Wonderful background Karen - and a gorgeous card overall.

This bear is adorable. Went to the site and could not find it. Is it still available? Great card

In response to Lynne's comment- Sorry it took so long- I was waiting to hear back from Vicky of Crackerbox Palace and she has been extremely busy. She is getting close to opening a totally new website, so didn't put this stamp on the one that is shutting down. But it is available- just call her at the store and leave a message or email her at vbriggs@ymail.com and she will let you know the price and how to order.
