Summer? Where are you??????

Are you ready for summer? OK, maybe spring does need to come first.....but come on already with this weather! I can't take it anymore!!!!! I am longing for those dog days of summer, bbq's, swimming, taking night walks.......
This is another High Hope's stamp. I colored him in with my Prismas and mineral spirits. I went to Michaels last night just to get out of my "sick" house. Course I went in my pajama top, (who would see it under my coat?) Woody Wood Pecker hair, and not a stitch of makeup! Can you say, scary sight? The check out girl looked at me pretty funny.......but I digress......there was a stand of all kinds of new paper. This paper was from Me & My Big Ideas. I thought it looked rather summery and watery! I added the rhinestones for "water droplets." I found this ribbon at Michaels too. Unfortunately, it did not fit, so I cut it up to make it fit!

Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!

*Still home from school.....Kyle is getting better, and now Cort is sick! Hope they recuperate over the weekend!

That sounds typical. One gets better and then the rest of the house follows suit...a long drawn out affair!!
Hope you stay healthy!

I know I'm ready for summer!! It's mighty chilly in my neck of the woods. I love your card! It's so sweet and the blue and yellow combo goes so well together.

This image makes me smile! How cute is that moose? Love the DP! I am ready for a change in the weather too, although, we don't have it nearly as bad as people up north. I guess I should'nt complain. Just ready for flowers and green grass amd capris!

My husband calls it the gift that keeps on giving when one person gets sick and then one by one the others get sick. I hope she feels better quickly.

Cute card. I have those days when I go out like you too. Glad to know I'm not alone.
