Ever start a card and it doesn't end the way you think it should? Or it doesn't turn out the way you envision it? Well, this is THAT card for me. :) It is okay - but it was one of those cards I think I spent too much time on. So this is to show you that I do have off days. We will consider it a warm up card for the week. LOL
