Just Because

 

Just because, I loved this Joy Ride set from Hero Arts. I remember the summer between 6th and 7th grade I babysat for a foster mom with custody of 2 precious little boys while she worked 2nd shift as an RN at the local hospital. I saved all of my money that summer to buy a Schwinn 10-speed bike. At 75 cents per hour, it took a long time to save $127. I loved that bike for the places it would take me, but mostly I loved that I paid for it myself.

I had the sentiment circle on my desk as I was putting this card together, and I realized it was just about the same size as the larger wheel of the bike, so I replaced the wheel. Beautiful sentiments in this set from JustRite, You’re So Sweet.

Have a great day!
