SSSC83 - Just Because

Good morning!  It's that fun day of the week, time for the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge!  This week we have a guest joining the Sweet Sunday Stampers, the talented Nancy McKinney who also created this weeks sketch.  Welcome Nancy!  This is such a fun sketch for all of us, I just love the large circle and scallops.  For my card I used Extra Large Fancy Flower punch and punched three flowers out of the Newsprint designer paper and used the largest flower from the Boho Blossoms punch and a vintage brad for the center.  I used the stamp sets Elements of Style for the swirl on the upper half of the circle, Notably Ornate for the Just Because sentiment and Tiny Tags for the 4 You.  All of these stamp sets intermix so well together to create a vintage looking card.
To play along create a card using Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch, then go to Karen’s blog The Sweetest Thing and link your card so we can all see your creation!
