Beautiful Life Birthday...

Hello & Happy Wednesday to ya!
Have you ever had a week where you feel
like you're just going in Circles? 
That's me this week! My brain feels like
it's on over load since I have sooo many
things I need to get done!
Luckily, I like to make extra cards
for these types of occasions.. So I'm not
stressing about rushing to get a project done....
Although I do have a few projects due.... I think
I'm okay right now in that department
so I can focus on my list of other things! :)

Here's what I created to show you --


Would you believe, that I made this the beginning of August?
Yup, That's how my brain works - Make extra cards when I can
so I'm not short handed when I need to have it! :)

Here's the Recipe --

Card Stock - Stampin' Up, Georgia Pacific
Designer Paper - Echo Park (Beautiful Life)
Butterflies are from the Same Kit
Scallop - Sil. Store (#4547)
Doily - Sil. Store (28268)
Happy Birthday - Sil. Store (#66661)

Clear Gems - Stampin' Up

got in my way! :) I got lucky at the beginning of the
week.... and had to get her cut! :)

Here's what I created --
