Don't you just love that quote? Timeless Quotes is one of my favorite sets by Flourishes. I made it with a specific friend in mind who has spent quite a bit of time in the shade recently, but I think the sunshine is on its way. I hope she likes it.
And the card fit nicely into Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenge to use designer paper on a card this week. Yeah!
One quick note about the Shimmerz Spritz. I want to show you how the Baby's Breath Spritz spattered on my card stock. I could have re-done the piece, but I actually quite like how it looks. The reason it spattered is that I shook it up way too much and got air bubbles in it. For more even coverage, tap the bottom of your bottle and swirl it around to mix it up rather than shaking it. If, however, you do want a spattered look then give it a good old shake.

Pretty layout and colours. I like the splatter effect too, it's nice when accidents work in your favour.

Another "simply" BEAUTIFUL card! The verse is so perfect for ours and our friends' busy, complicated lives.
