Simply Betty Stamps - Facebook Challenge

This month's facebook challenge was to use the following image as inspiration.

we were able to use the color, the layout or whatever we wanted to do based off of this :)

I went with the layout, it looked fun and of course the image (Steampunk Rio) is simply amazing!!

I also entered this into the Simply Challenged Anything Goes challenge

Pumpkin Spice - Any Occasion Card

Good morning everyone!  I hope you have a relaxing day ahead of you before going back to work tomorrow...me I plan on watching some of the Pro Bowl :)  For today's project I thought I'd take one of the paper stacks and make a quick card that can be used for any occasion.  I haven't put any sentiments on the front yet as I'll wait until I figure out what I need it for.  But one good thing, this is a great way to use up those scraps and it's super quick :)

The papers I used on this were from the Be You Paper Pad
