Hello! This is my card for the sketch challenge #462. This stamp set from 08' by artist Asela Hopkins in has a sentiment which is stamped on the inside saying "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined. --Henry David Thoreau. I think it is perfect for my friend who is starting a new job on Friday. I hope she likes it. Thanks for looking at my card. Hope you have a wonderful day!
