A life filled with Love..............



.................... must have thorns, but a life empty of love will have no roses. Isn't that a wonderful quote! It is from DCWV and I thought the quote would be great with nothing else with it, just some beautiful papers from Toucan Scraps . I have used the Dungaree papers again as they matched the tones of the quote soooooooo well. Their papers can be found Here .

I have added a few embellishments and some distressed flowers and paper ribbons.

It was perfect for the following challenges:-

Little Red Wagon - Nestabilities

One Stop Craft Challenges - Monochromatic

Incy Wincy - Punches

One stitch At A Time - Military, I went for Military colours

Auds sentiments - Any sentiment
Hope you like the card and don't forget to check our the Toucan Scraps Store xx
