Imagine the Possibilities.....



The inspiration photo at Pals Paper Arts this week is downright gorgeous!  Beautiful colors, beautiful sweater, beautiful smile...........this gal seems to be enjoying life for sure!  So this sentiment just seemed to fit her mood!  I stamped a background of fall colors using French Foliage and actually did a bit of tearing and smudging.  That's a whole new world for me...........Imagine the possibilities!

Linda, you are correct in saying we were on the same page. Your card is beautiful! I made mine last week and it just happened to fit this challenge. Love your sponging or should I say smudging!

I have to ask... what kind of white cardstock are you using? Is it whisper white by SU? or a different brand. I am totally enamored by this card!
