2 challenges in one card

Today's card is for Oh La La challenge asking for words of wisdom. The sketch challenge is from Sketches by Tamera, #60.



Double clicking gives a much richer view of the card.


This card is mounted on SU paper, Bravo Burgandy.
The flowers and sentiment is from a book of papers and punch outs by Deja Views (out of Bloomfield, CT)
The ribbon was from the $ bin at Michaels, and the shiny stones from my drawer of goodies.
I punched out the scallop circle behind the flower with a Marvy punch.

When I don't stamp on a card, I have a sense of guilt as all of the prepared stuff is new to me.

Enjoy!

Later--I made three more from the scraps --I had a wonderful time!!
