March 2011 SFYTT - Just Because

I have never made lunch box notes before.  Mostly because I am not the one who packs lunch for my DD.  I do like the idea however, so that is how today's card started out.  Once I added the sentiment though, this card turned into a wake up note, I don't want to embarrass my DD at school...

The image is from the clear stamp set Baby Mermaid: Can I Keep Him - so so sweet.  Amber Ink is known for their digis, but does have clear stamps too - not only are the stamps top quality, the packaging is oh so fun, just like the owners of Amber Ink! I paired up the stamps with new goodies from Cosmo Cricket {thank you CC - I won the Salt Air paper pack on the CC blog :>)}, it is as if the PP was made to go with the stamp images ;>). 
The card is based on March's SFYTT, which is sponsored by Amber Ink!  Inspiration came from this week's Etsy Inspired Challenge #132- also sponsored by Amber Ink!  Fresh Metal Jewelry is the inspiration site and I was pulled in by the colors and circles - I added just a bit of metal and ribbon!  I realize now that I forgot to add the bling to the mermaid's tail...oh well, bling does not come naturally to me, I will have to add it though, because it sure does come naturally to my DD!!!
Smiles,
Julie
