Fast and Easy

Sentiment as focal point cards are fast and easy.  With the right paper and a few embellishments they look like a million bucks.  There are lots of places you can find inspiration.  This card was inspired by a card I saw on the Sharon Johnson's No Time To Stamp blog.  If you're stumped or your mojo's gone on walk about, that's a good place to poke around.

ink - Stampin' Up "Always Artichoke"
