Bugaboo Birthday challenges, day 3...

Ok, so day 2 went a little bit awry! I had a card finished and ready before I saw that you had to use a specific image, but not to fear- I can use that one for the Friday challenge of 'anything goes' (which is the one card I had not finished) and you have longer to enter the cards than I thought so I should have time to make a card with the image and add it before the Tuesday challenge closes- phew!!
I'm hoping this isn't too cheeky- the recipient is 16 and has had a serious operation on her back, she now has an infection and I hear she needs some cheering up.
This card follows the sketch which is today's challenge at Catch the Bug. The image is ICU from the Nursing Stella Set coloured with promarkers. The papers are from a freebie download called 'Sweet Sprinkles' from Shabby Princess. The flower is made with Joy dies and the swirl is from a Marianne die with a couple of tiny gems on the ends.

I would also like to enter this card for:

Alison, I love that combination of polka-dot and striped pastels! And this is definitely one of my most favorite Stellas - The sentiment just cracks me up. . .;) Thanks so much for participating in Catch the Bug's sketch mini-challenge with Bugaboo Stamps! :D MWAH!

I hope the young lady gets better soon and that's a perfect card. Again, thats some very pretty paper. I need to go back and see who made this paper...perhaps you mentioned it and I missed it. Again, wonderful card and good luck to the young lady. I've had back surgery and I'm ancient...not fair for some one so young to have to go through this.
