It Will Be Ok

It will be ok.

Really. I've got to remember that.

I received the chance to play along with the talented Wida's lovely idea, CASADIA, which you can read about more here on her blog. I took the colors and layout, along with major focal elements from an amazing card found here by Susie Wittwer.

Thanks, Wida, for giving me a chance to play along, and Michele for creating the amazing sentiment featured on this card that can be found on the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps set so aptly called Breathe.
