ScrapFit Workout #20 Submission #2

I made this bookmark for a recent high school graduate friend that is headed to college in the fall. Also all card stock!

ScrapFit Workout #20 Submission #1

"Just Do It": This is a cardstock ONLY challenge! You can use all the embellies you want, but that paper must only be CARDSTOCK!!

I didn't do a full layout, I may still, but I had a friend recently graduate with her 2 year degree in Massage Therapy. I wanted to make her a card, but what I started making and what I ended up with were dramatically different. She very much enjoys motivational phrases, so I thought it fit for her anyway. All that being said, the tag was cardstock, so here it is!

This one was fun! I honestly had NO idea what I was going to do, until I had 10 spare minutes in my craft room one night and made the "today" tag, featured in the lower right corner. I set it aside to dry, and forgot about it for about a week. Last Thursday, as I was packing up for the next days monthly crop at SJV, I came across it, as well as a pic of my hubby when he was 15 (this will clue you in to the state of my craft space - crazy disorganization!). So, I packed both in a bag, along with a mental note of this ScrapFIT Challenge, and went off to bed. I worked the entire next day, arrived at the crop with still not a clue of what I was going to do with either item. I realized that I had to have a current pic of him with me, and the idea started to unfold. Without a "yesterday" stamp amongst us all at the crop, I had to get creative with some pink alphas that I received in a grab bag a year ago and that I never would have probably used (I have 2 boys), put them on the tag, inked over them, then pulled them up and voila, such a pleasant suprise that it worked out. I have to give credit to all the girls that night, especially Sandi & Rhonda, for their input and shared buttons & ribbon! Enjoy!
