Most days I make a card inspired by a stamp I want to use - today I was inspired by a card here on SCS Red Embossed Inspiration by stampinupconsultan at Splitcoaststampers (Greenie has tried to show me how link to someone but I lost the directions) - Her layout was just lovely and I realized it would be perfect for some paper I scored at a stationary shop going out of business. The cardstock is just lovely in black and white - what you can't see in the photo is it has a pearlized look to it, nice quality stuff that I got cheap (YES!!). Dug into my paper stash and pulled this lovely stuff out and made this card. It is different from the inspiration card in that I put my layers off center and I am still debating as to whether or not I will ad a flower in the right corner. For now I am pretty happy with it.

Ah, Kush, this is mesmerizingly beautiful!! That paper is something else, especially since it has a pearlized finish. I love the encouraging sentiment in the fleur delis framing to make it stand out from the other layers. That is good and Godly advice!! LYMI!
