Get well soon

Today, a card for mom's man who is about to have surgery. Nothing major though, but still nothing one wishes to do. Except if one is a surgeon probably :)
I thought I'd send a little Get well note to cheer him up, and used this wonderful bear-digi from Meljen's designs. It's actually a wrapped-up Halloween mummy, but I decided to remove the spiders and turn him into a patient.

As it's a man's card, I took neutral colours for the project, and not too many embellishments. There is actually no need for much addings as the background paper is like a decoration itself, so I only used a couple of pearls and roses. I also added a few small pearls to where some kind of bubbles were painted in the original digi.

In the end, I added a sentiment saying "Get well soon".
It might seem a bit shaky, but that's because I've written it when it was all glued together, and I had to avoid the roses while writing. It has nothing to do with the fact that I haven't practised calligraphy for ages, I swear ;)
