Summer memories...aren't they the best.....
time spent with family and friends.....
a week with us at our Lake Huron home....
we have lots of fun kayaking, playing corn hole, badminton, vollyball
taking long walks along the beach, sitting around the fire at night
and when it gets too dark and buggy out, we pop corn and play games!!
This year was no exception, we did all that and more...
I am sharing with you a few of the photos from our week in August....
Which brings me to the August challenge at Stampendous....
"Summer Memories"
I have used this stamp many a time before, it's an oldie...
from 1998 and called Portland Head Lighthouse
but I thought it was perfect for my summer memories....
we see many a lighthouse where we are located here in Michigan....
I stamped the image in first Versamark...
then I added Stampendous "Red Dragon" embossing powder...
I LOVE this stuff..so pretty with all that sparkle of glitter in it!!
I let the image speak for itself, so just added a ribbon and an anchor punch!
I will be off my blog until the 28th or so
we will be back at the Lake Huron house at the time of this post....
have a great week my friends!!

Wow, that sounds fabulous! I want to go! That is about the prettiest lighthouse I've ever seen, all sparkly red. Cute anchor hangin' there, too. Your family is lovely. What a beautiful and happy looking bunch they are!
Wonderful cards Diane! Nice to see the family pictures as well. You are a very lucky lady!

Hi, Diane! I had to make sure I was following your blog after you left such a funny comment on my GDT post this week for Sisterhood of Crafters!
Love this card! Sometimes less is more, and this is a perfect example! Sounds like a great time at the lake! I am a MI girl, currently living in SC and not on the water. I sure do miss my Great Lakes!! Now I low where I can come to catch a glimpse of some pics! :)
