Blooming Smiles: Wendy’s Feel-Better Card

There’s nothing like a handmade card to brighten someone’s day, and Wendy Auger’s stunning Feel Better Soon card does just that! Created during a lively crafting event in January 2023, this design showcases a beautiful balance of elegance and warmth.

A Thoughtful Design

This card features a gate fold, a clever and interactive technique that adds a special touch to its presentation. The clean white base sets the stage for delicate light grey floral details, adding soft elegance to the background. But the true showstopper is the bright pink and green bloom at the center—its depth and color make it almost lifelike! Framed with a bold Sweet Sorbet border, the flower takes center stage, drawing the eye effortlessly.

At the bottom, a heartfelt message, “feel better real SOON,” adds a warm sentiment that makes this card perfect for lifting someone’s spirits.
