I wish I could do this...

I'm still not sure where our UK summer is and sure isn't warm enough to do this yet...

Come on sunshine, come on warmth - please visit us for goodness sakes!   Okay, so back to the card!  We are showcasing some summery inspiration over at MilkCoffee Stamps and the theme is summer so for my DT make I used Madeline: Summer Time - she's so beautiful and I love that hat!  I used Kristin Cronin-Barrow Pumpkins and Spice papers and created the sand with some left over cork.

 Check out more summery inspiration over at the blog here and I'll catch you later on my blog rounds.  Thanks for visiting!

 

There She Goes Aquaholic Blog Hop Challenge!

It's new release week at There She Goes!  And today we are showing the super cute set by Melyssa that'll get us in the mood for summer!  This has three adorable character images and lots of accessories and sentiments!

Aquaholic is a 6x8 set that includes a total of 26 stamps and will sell for $24.00. This set will be available for purchase at 11pm EST on Saturday, May 25^th.

So this is what I made...

Didn't I say this set was super cute?!  I used some cork for the sand and cut out the banners from October Afternoon Seaside papers.  I really liked how this card turned out - I'm going to give it to my super sweet, clever, beautiful niece cos I love her so much!
