Learn from yesterday - The Rubber Cafe

"Learn from Yesterday

Live for today

Hope for Tomorrow"

This is one of the amazing sentiments on the stamp sets over at The Rubber Cafe's - Creative Cafe KOTM.  They are stunning and can be used in so many ways.  Oh, and the paper in this kit, TO DIE FOR!  I love small tiny floral prints.  Something about them makes me happy.  The more vintage they look, or wallpapery they look the better for me.  Here is todays card, over at The Rubber Cafe's blog. Be sure to head on over and leave a comment on how great you think my card is!!!  hehe
