Moments....



This is for yesterday's SCS Color Challenge(CC238)! We are to use pretty in pink, going gray, and sage shadow. I do not have any going gray so I substitued smokey shadow cardstock.

I am using a new release by Flourishes called Falling Leaves. I used the quote in the set.


This card is also for Mercy's sketch challenge(MTSC41)! Great sketch. I converted the size to my standard 5.5 square.

I did make a funky flower thingy using a flower punch. I added some Nouveau Chic dp and some retired pretty in pink dsp. I layered a MS border punch. I decided I like this punch layered better than alone as I have had it for quite awhile and rarely use it.

**** Shipping Note **** I do want to add that, since I normally make 5.5 squared cards, I get charged $.60 to ship just because it is not a standard envy. So, if I am going to be charged the amount anyway, I may as well add some layers. Shipping is usually $1.00 per card sometimes alittle more.
