Take a Nap and Get Over It

The theme for this week's 52-Card Pick-up challenge is Change Your Mind.  Sue talks about the importance of remembering that we control our attitude ... and sometimes we need to adjust it ... and linked to a beautiful song by Sister Hazel called, appropriately, Change Your Mind.

I don't love this card ... I'm not even sure I really like it.  I put the paper in the embossing folder upside down (hence the backwards numbers at the top left) ... the color balance seems a bit off ... and the layout plain.  However, I do love the sentiment ... it speaks volumes.  Sometimes we all need to just take a time out, make an attitude adjustment, and move on down the road.

One thing I do sort of like about the card is the effect of stamping the Hero Arts Outline flowers over the black text sentiment.  I stamped off once to slightly lighten the image, but it still turned out a bit darker than I'd hoped.

I guess it's time to just take a nap and get over it.

well *I* like this A LOT! i love the patterns...the sentiment ROCKS!!!!!!!!! i quite love the backwards numbers, even which sort of go with the child-like script of the words!

i am thinking that maybe a little bit of ribbon or cardstock...sort of loosely and messily pleated on the left side *MIGHT* give it the "VAVOOM" factor...on the other hand...you could do a lauren and wind up with a sewn-shut card!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :)
