creating yourself

Happy Friends with Flair!

I just LOVE this quote! To me it means that we all have the chance to change those things in our lives that we want to change. We don't have to stick with what we are now, we can grow, learn and evolve into what we want to be!

For my card I used this awesome new paper from Basicgrey called Out of Print. I knew I needed to have it the first time I saw it! The sketch is this month's Sketch for You to Try. I just flipped it on its side and changed it a bit. The quote panel is popped up with pop dots.

Have a great day! We're having some much needed rain in northern Illinois! It's a nice break from the heat! Stay cool!
