I've been staying in the coolest area of the house...downstairs and haven't visited my crafty space in DAYS. So this morning I got up and played. I made two cards, they're inspired by 4 challenges.
First up-
The challenges for this card are : Cas on Friday-anything but white so I have a blue card base as the predominant color and Double D - Lets go to the Beach.
My second card is also a summery card.
Stay cool...thanks for visiting.

Love them both and they are both absolutely perfect for those challenges. sorry you are finding the weather difficult and it is keeping you out of your craft room, I was starting to wonder if I had missed a post or two, glad you are OK xx
Two fab cards, Cat! Love the seashells on blue but my fave is the fun van with surfboard - great blended circle behind too!!
Gorgeous cards, Cat. I love them both but card #1 is just fabulous, Jo x
Fun cards, and definitely reminiscent of outside our craft rooms right now!
Good thing you made it to your craft room, Cat! 2 great cards, my friend! I really love the second one with the California beach scene!
Cat, I LOVE your "surfer" card! Gorgeous beachy sky and such a fun VW camper. We are so pleased that you joined us this week at Watercooler Wednesday. Karen - DT
Don't you just love it when you have the perfect stamps for the occasion? I love the sentiment about the seashells!
Thanks so much for driving your darling pink bus over to IB, Cat!!

Both are wonderful summer cards!
your seashell card is so pretty and classy, Cat - wonderful sentiment and the colorful van scene is so cute! hot, hot here too and humid!
I'm not a heat (or humidity!!!) fan either Cat! Not a real fan of snow either though, so I'm just going to stay in my nice air conditioned house and not complain! Your cards both say SUMMER big time though and I'm loving them both! Your embossed seashells on the dark blue look so cool...beautiful card! And your 2nd card definitely says let's head to the beach! Great cards my friend! Stay cool! :0)
Where did you find those gorgeous seashells? I love how you placed them on that beautiful shade of blue, too! I also love how you blended your inks on the 2nd card...your background is perfect for the palm tree and van...WOW!
Stay cool, my friend :)
Both cards are fabulously created, those sea shells are so pretty too! Thank you for joining our challenge at Double D!

What a great sentiment on your pretty seashell card! Ad I love that you had the perfect stamps for our IB challenge. What a fun card, thanks for joining us!
OMG, I love both these cards! Gorgeous white embossing on the blue, and your second card is so dang cute!! We had a VW bus like that in blue, and our son had a red one years ago. How fun! I'm sorry you can't get enough relief from the heat and humidity. It sounds miserable!
Cool beachy cards the white embossed shells are fabulous and I have gotten that van out in a long time!
I so hope the weather cools down for you Cat x. Your first card is striking and fabulous and what a fun and happy birthday card x.
WOW! Both cards are fabulous! I love both designs! Great job! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Double D ‘Let’s Go To The Beach’ challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.

LOVE your van! ROFL! (I just uploaded my entry to the Inspired By blog and saw that we used the same van in almost identical colors.) Great minds think alike. *wink* Beautiful design. We most definitely were on the same wavelength this week. Love your card.
Love them both Cat! My hubby and I had a combi in our younger days with surfboards on top too! That would make a perfect card for my hubby. Thanks for sharing with us at Watercooler Wednesday.
They are SO CUTE Cat!! The sentiment on the seashell card is awesome, very cool card! I love the blending, design, and van on the second, absolutely perfect! Thank you for sharing @ IB, can't wait to see more of your cards!
Love the beach card! Thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges! Kath-DT
