Its Summer

Hello---

I truly dislike the heat. I'm also so sensitive to humidity having lived in a desert most of my life.   I'll be so glad once the temps go back to the 80's. Then I can handle the humidity.

Today  I made a summery card for two challenges - Inky Paws and Freshly Made Sketches.




I used Newtons Nook Design's Newtons Summer Treats along with their plaid stencil for the tone on tone card base. 

 

Thanks for visiting.  Stay cool.  Stay Safe.

Perfect summer card--just adorable! We finally have some clouds & are cooler for a day, thankfully. I really am not a summer person unless I'm at a lake & that isn't happening!

Darling kitty with cone, Cat, and I love the orange!! One of my cats (RIP) used to love ice cream and if I had a cone she'd practically attack me to get a bite!!

Great use of the layout, and terrific bold colors. The tone on tone adds quite a bit of interest as well

Plaid, and orange? two of my favorite things - ON TOP of an ice cream eating kitty? Well that just does it for me!
SO purrrrty!

Great take on the sketch, this card would also fit Day of the month card club. That little cat looks so happy with his ice cream. Is that a stencil on the background? It looks like it may be the same as the one I recently received from lovely Loll xx

Love those Newton's Nook stamps. I wish I had more. Your cutie kittie is adorable! It's going to be a real heat wave here in NJ this week! I have not been able to curb my spending lately .... and I really need to!! Christmas in July is so tempting that I find myself taking advantage of the deals even though I don't really need any more Holiday products!

So sweet - really like the plaid background.

Leslie Miller said...

I don't like the heat, either, and definitely can not handle humidity, so I feel for you, Cat. Your darling kitty is beating the heat with that delicious looking ice cream. Your card is cool and summery at the same time. Super cute!
