Wise Words

This month's contest is based on the awesome Word To The Wise value packs that our DT received from Bound + d/termined this month!

Quotes are such a great way to include journaling when you wouldn't otherwise know what to say. I have compiled a list of some of the quotes that are printed on the Word To The Wise papers, and what I would like you to do this month is use one of those quotes on a layout! But that's not all...you must use some type of die-cut embellishment on your layout as well...this can be something you die-cut yourself using a machine, or it could be something that came pre-printed, for example from a Cosmo Cricket die-cut sheet.

So, a quote and a die-cut! That's it, pretty easy right? I want to see a TON of entries this month ladies there is an awesome prize up for grabs...I have an extra Word To The Wise pack here that I have split into three smaller packs...one of those will be the prize for this contest! Even 1/3 of the entire pack is still a LOT of awesome papers (and die-cuts)!!

So, here is the list of quotes...LOTS of choices here, I couldn't choose just a couple, they are all great quotes!
