Summer Fun

Hello Friends!

I have a fun summer card to share today!

On Mother's Day my great grandson and great granddaugher came to visit me.

They are so cute!  Paislie is 3 1/2 and Jenson is 2!

When I saw this cute, cute Crafty Secrets image in the 

Childhood Images & Journal Notes booklet,

they reminded so much of my sweet little ones,

I totally changed gears of what I was doing 

and put together  a cute summer card!

I had a bit of leftover paper from another project using Crafty Secrets

Retro Kitchen Kit and Kitchen Memories Kit

and the colors fit my card perfectly.

Have you seen these two kits?

OMGoodness, they are chock full of vintage/retro goodness!

The papers are gorgeous, let alone all the ephemera!

I added a striped bow with a striped vintage button....

I love how the stripes of the ribbon match the stripes in the little ones towel!

Gee, how many times did I say striped/stripes

in the paragraph above...LOL!!

I found in my stash a tiny, but real starfish, a shell and a bit of sea glass.....

which were the perfect embellishments!

I added a "sandpaper" beach for a bit of texture and

fussy cut the bottom of the image so they would look like they were walking on the sand!

A bit of Twilight Stickles was added to the water.
