Just Because....

Hello Everyone,

So glad it's Friday!!!! Yeah!! It's been a LONG week for me and glad to see the weekend approach. I don't have a lot planned for tomorrow so I am hoping to get caught up with some challenges. I am pretty SURE I am addicted to these, LOL!  I have been so bummed because I have had a busy September and I just had to give up on a few challenges....just no time :( I am hoping October slows down a bit so I can get back to my crafting!
So for my card today, I used the Lacey Label cartridge for the base of the card. I welded and cut it at 4.75 x 5.53 using my gypsy. The base layer at 4.25 x 4.95. The cut little turtle is cut from the Live Simply Cricut Lite cartridge at 2 1/2.

The banner is from Spellbinders~Ribbon Banners, the "Just Because"stamp is from  Endless Creations and the tag with "friends" is all from SU~Tiny tags stamp set. The pattern paper is all from My Mind's Eye~Stella and  Rose 6x6 paper pack. I just love the paper in this pack. So pretty!

I am entering in the following challenges:

1.) Whimsical Wednesdays ~Challenge #23~Just Because
2.) Die Cuttin Divas ~Challenge #32~Zoo Crazy
3.)  More Than Favors ~CCCC #31~Live Simply
4.) Crafty Ribbons  ~Challenge #2~Anything Goes

Thanks so much for stopping~Have a great weekend!
Sherrie K

    Sherrie your card is so pretty. Such a fun shape you chose for the card, and the turtle is darling. I forgot about that cut. I LOVE that paper!! OMG, I have to get it. LOL about that SU set tiny tags is one I just picked up with the punch too. I think it is super cute. Great job with this challenge. Thanks for playing along with us at Whimsical Wednesday.

    Oh my Sherrie, this is just gorgeous! You are right, those papers are stunning.. they've been on my long wish list! Your sweet little turtle is so sparkly, fancy, and so crazy adorable. :o) I love her little bow and the gorgeous pink bow. Your design is so beautiful, as always. I just love everything about this card, my friend. Thank you for playing along with us at Whimsical Wednesday! :o)

    I absolutely love this card! The shape is amazing and I love that bow! These colors are beautiful! I have this cart and i never noticed this cut. I will have to take a closer look! I had the exact same thing happen with my challenges. Too many things going on and no time to craft to join in on all the fun :( Hopefully October will be much better for us :)
