Summertime and the living is easy peasy! I decided to take a "vacation" from my usual style and create a fun and simple card for the Central Theme Challenge: Virtual Vacation.
I used all die cuts, both upper and lower case and two pair of cute "jelly flip flops" for the two M's in summer. A pair of sunglasses and a beach umbrella to shield our eyes from the bling *laughing* The only stamping on the card is the sentiment. The card has more embellishments than what a normal CAS should have but it does fall in the category of very simple (she smiles). Boy a day at the beach sounds mighty good doesn't it? This Arizona gal is sure glad to feel the warmth of late spring.
Wishing you a relaxin' weekend.
Sincerely,
Susie ~

What a fun and fabulous die cut design, Susie!! I can't wait for summer to get here even though the flip flop is the official shoe of Texas year round!

Oh Susie this is fantastic. I saw it on the front page of the gallery and loved it at first sight. I would never have picked it as one of yours, this has gone straight into My Favs (which proves that EVERYTHING you do is amazing).

Susie, living in a country where we usually get only one or two days of "summer" this just sings warmth, fun, and sunshine - you have such a talent for adding just the right touch and bringing it all together, and you've done it here with style - thanks for brightening my day with this beauty!

What a HAPPY card this is! Summer and fun just leap from every corner of this card! LOVE the use of the flip flops for the M's in summer. Your colorful umbrella shading your summer BRILLIANCE is so perfect. Maybe this card isn't your usual style but it ROCKS with creativity and makes ones heart sing!
