I decided to go a little grunge style today. I used some washi tape and some old stamps to create a bit of collage like area on the left side of the card, then used some distress inks on all the edges of the image panel and sentiment and card. Love how this turned out! Love that saying too....don't worry about yesterday...begin fresh each day! :D
