Enjoy the Journey

I can't believe that I actually finished this card in one night!  whoohoo!  The main focus is from the Stampin Sisters in Christ Challenge based on "for such a time as this" from Esther 4:14.  I've been struggling with time..as why this challenge to be special to me.  Everyone has the same amount but choose to use it differently.  Will what I'm doing now matter 100 years from now?

I plan on entering this card into 3 challenges:
Now my creation...........I apologize for the poor quality picture.  I took this with my cell phone.  It's after 11:00 pm & in order to take a pic with my digital camera I would have to wake my hubby.  That would not be good since he's the morning person.  I will try to swap it out this weekend.  Did not want to wait to post.  Ok..this is WAY better.  I'll try not to be impatient next time.




Paper:  BasicGrey Urban Prairie for pink & printed; Stamin Up So Saffron, Whisper White;maroon from stash....Stamps:  Tim Holtz Visual Artistry Collection - The Journey, Life's Possibilities....Ink:  Archival Ink in Jet Black from Ranger....Embellishments:  Prima flowers, self-stick centers from Wal-Mart

Time is a companion that goes with us on the journey.
It reminds us to cherish each moment because it will never come again.
What we leave behind is not as important as how we live.

What is your journey for such a time as this?
Thanks for stopping by.
