Rise Above It All...

pretty much says it all, doesn't it?  I love the way this design turned out so I think I am going to make a stack of these in an array of colors.  For this card I used a total of 5 different greens.  4 for the background and the 5th to stamp the sentiment.  Anytime any one needs a little uplifting, I'll have a card ready to go :)
