That's because it is my birthday ! When I sat down to make a card, I was reflecting on how fast time flies -62 years for me. How did that happen.? And how many wasted days, weeks, months, years have I spent? So I was looking for a great saying and remembered this sentiment by Ippity. I combined lots of challenges (some not even knowingly). I used scraps, tags and eyelets that have not seen daylight for years. The tag is removable as a bookmark. I tried vellum as first but it seemed too opaque so I used a piece of window sheeting.
