Summer Fun


Summer fun time ... even though we're in the Southern hemisphere and it's supposed to be winter. But it's been 25-29ÂșC this week!! Weather is going crazy - I'm off to the beach!

I'm not going with the Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini, but the wonderful new SSS bikini die cut with purple gingham pattern paper! Either way, hope you have sunshine and a wonderful weekend.

Beautiful Birthday

This is ALL NBUS ... sentiment and flowers! The sentiment set is from Hero Arts and I'm sure it's going to be a firm favourite : Birthday Messages. The flowers from Club Scrap.

Pretty in Pink


I love soft pinks with green so the Color Throwdown Challenge #451 is a perfect match.



Sunflower Sunshine

Time for inking up a NBUS (Never Before Used Stamped) and sending some sunflower sunshine to my friend. I grabbed this stamp set on the Club Scrap Sale and it arrived while I was away.

CASology #257 : Wish

What is it about dandelions that make them so magical that we can make wishes with them?! So light, dreamy and enchanting.

We all wish for things ... and send good wishes to others, so come and enter this week's CASology Challenge : Wish

CASology #256 : Pizza

This has been a challenge indeed ... besides not having any pizza stamps, there were no ideas flowing. I took the sentiment from SideSandwich on Etsy and typed it up adding some pizza clipart.

Pizza is one of my favourite foods, but since having to avoid wheat, it has been a challenge to find a good one! Anyone out there have a good wheat-free recipe?


[I apologise for the photo - it looks fine on my camera, photos and preview file, but as soon as I upload it, it goes out of focus.]

Come on over to CASology and join in the Pizza Challenge.

June CCC

It's been a while since I played in the Card Chain Challenge. They have their own blog now and I'm so happy that Deborah, Gail and Jo have kept it going.

My card went to Jerrie in Wisconsin.


Thought it would be a good idea to have the envelope match.
