A card using Simon's September CardKit

There are some really fun items in the Simon CardKit for September!  Among them are papers that include lots of blackboard motifs, and I featured one of them in this card, along with several of the smaller stamps from the Life is a Journey stamp set by Kristina Werner.


I simply trimmed the "lovely" sentiment, framed it in pink cardstock, coloring in the bow with a pale pink marker, and then stamped the flowers and leaves on my white card base, using tattered rose and bundled sage distress inks.  

I'll be back later this month with some more cards using this new CardKit.  If you like what you see, don't wait to order yours - this one will be another sell-out, I'm sure!
