Live As If You'll Die Today

This week's 52-Card Pickup challenge is "Have I done any good?"  I thought it was a great theme for a graduation card.  I found these wonderful Reminisce Journal and Quote cards in my Wisconsin travels.  It's a deck of 52 cards where one side is a quote and the other side is for journaling.  

One verse of the inspiration song on Sue's blog is:

There are chances for work all around just now,
Opportunities right in our way.
Do not let them pass by,
Saying, "Sometime I'll try",
But go and do something today.

I thought this James Dean quote summed up this idea well.

I used coordinated DP and word stickers from the Reminisce Unwritten collection & this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch.  I recently added the We R Memory Keepers Crop-A-Dile Corner Chomper Tool to my arsenal, and I love it.

You've used one of my favorite color combos! Great card, and thanks for joining the challenge this week! I also appreciate your kind comments. I knew you were on vacation, so I wasn't upset that you didn't play last week - although I definitely did miss having one of your perfect cards in the challenge!
