Just Because!!!

I have been really busy the past couple of weeks with DT stuff that I can't show you yet :) but I decided that I wanted to color, just because I wanted to color, and chose Mo's Digital Pencil Savannah  on Easter to color.  Here is what I came up with:

I wanted a bright springy image so I used copic markers to color in shades of yellow and yellow-red.
I created the white lacy layer using my new Martha Stewart punch around the corner punch set that I just happened to have a 40% coupon for. 
The yellow dp is from my stash .  The flower in the upper right corner is punched from the same dp .  The half pearls add a bit of elegance to the corners of the lacy punched border.
So my Just Because card is complete and now I have to get busy on finishing up with a jam packed week of new releases, blog hope and sneak peeks.  Be sure you stop back on Monday for the first of the Riley and Company sneak peeks, Tuesday will have the Sassy Cheryl's Challenge  and a Riley and Company sneak peek, Wednesday will have a Riley and Company sneak peek, The Artistic Outpost is releasing their newest stamp sets,  and at 9pm Central time the Riley and Company is having a Blog Hop of the new release images,  Thursday is Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge day, my 3rd week as hostess :),  Friday may be a day of rest LOL.

Fun filled week with lots of prizes and sales so be sure to stop in a see what is going on!!!

Thanks for stopping by

Happy Coloring
