Those Lazy, Hazy, Crazy Days of Summer
This is my Stars and Stripes card for the Stamp Simply Challenge on Friday that I missed. Since the 4th is nearly over, I went with a summer theme and a light-hearted, fun card. This lady perched on her post just made me chuckle. Love these fun vintage images for a quick card!
Another simple creation done in the tent topper style I just love, created by Michelle Wooderson – a GREAT card design — just a little different and fun for a change. The card base is 4.25″ square and the image is mounted so to make the card 5.5″ high, just like a normal A2 sized card.
And do you remember when I did this card using JustRite Font, I said I was going to stamp some *Summer* sentiments just to have on hand? Well, came in handy today! Something you may want to consider when building words on your Rectangle Stampers.

Hoping you all had a wonderful 4th of July! We are going to the fireworks tonight — our yearly ritual. We order a take out pizza and some pop and sit in the car and watch the fireworks. LOL!!! We’re a real exciting bunch — LOL!!! Have fun everyone and be careful!
I’ll be back early Monday morning to share a project I love — something pretty — and to introduce you to some new friends I’ve met and provide you with some new links (they were new to me anyway)! I think you’ll like all that you will see. PLUS there are fun and games that you can participate in — so hope you can stop in on Monday — see you soon!
