To add to the Get Well theme, the background is made of medical tape that I've saved from my dogs' last few vet appointments. It's what they use to bandage their legs after they take blood, and since the tape doesn't touch any actual blood, I couldn't resist recycling the brightly-colored tape!
The blue banner is cut from a rubber tourniquet that I saved from the last time I had blood drawn (the phlebotomist looked at me suspiciously, but once I told her I would use it for crafting she let me take it!) I heat-embossed the sentiment in neon orange.
All Dressed Up has lots of cute image, but I really enjoy paper-piecing their dog images. I used pink, yellow, and green dotted papers. I added some color with Copics, and hand-colored his cute flower-patterned ear. The little flowers are from the same digi set. I made the ribbon flower using an adhesive Glüber base.
