One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Make It Monday # 250

Yikes!  I am all out of sympathy and praying for you cards!
I thought I would use the Make it Monday to start building up my stash again.

Laurie Willison has a video up HERE to see how she masked off part of her card to get a very nice frame around her sponging.
I used PTI aqua mist, hawaiian shores, and tropical teal on my card.
I pulled out an older PTI set called "Life" and stamped it in black.
My sentiment is from an older set also called Asian Fusion.
Here is Laurie's card:

Thanks for stopping by!
Heart Hugs, friends!
