Embrace change


This is another card I made to mail along with a few other cards for Dustin Pikes cause. It bugs me a little that when I photograph my cards. They just do not look the same. Because in person this card rocks! I wanted to share That the stamps I used are a set of Stampin Up stamps that I won during a bloghop a while back from My Simple life on paper. I used the sketch from Midnight Madness. That was all I had in mind when I created this card. Often I browse Pennys candy bar links (Hers are neatly coordinated by days of the week!) I found two more challenges This card fits with. Tuesday Taggers challenge is Shades of Autumn. The second would be Scrap and Stamp Saturday which is calling for using a quote. The quote that is hard to read in this picture came from my new CTMH treasures set. It says ...the winds of change bring treasures unknown...embrace change... I also found one more challenge in my postings! Dare to be Sassy is having a Fall inspiration challenge! As you can see I destressed the edges and mixed green and brown. The maple leaf embellishment happens to be in my stash I have that I have no idea who made it- but it fit Perfect!
