Sites of the week

This summer has proved to be a wee bit challenging for squeezing in stamping time, but fortunately it has been done! Not only providing me a little stress relief, but also checking off my to-do list. Anyone else counting down the days until the kids are back in school? LOL! I think that I might be going a little less crazy if the weather wasn’t trapping us inside most of the day. Geez, I break more of a sweat getting the kids in and out of the car at the gym than I do actually in the gym…at least it feels like it sometimes!

Back to that whole stamping thing I mention, though! This week’s TCP Tuesday challenge is a color challenge being brought to you by Hipster Hostess with the Mostess, Tori Wild. You can see her sample and more challenge details on her blog HERE.

Don’t you just love these summer colors? Just makes me crave an icy cold lemonade!

I set out to make a card, but when I got part of the way through making this large panel, I decided to keep it as a tag. I think it will be fun to either attach onto a bag front or hang from a gift bag handle…

I made this card by mixing and matching sets and dies from The Cat’s Pajamas. The sentiments come from the {new} Kick Some Grass and Bearing Flowers sets. I used both the Easy Rosette and Button Flowers CutUps dies. I love how well they pair together, but each is so much fun on it’s own, too!

Today, I have a few more stamping to-dos to knock off my list, as well as prepare for a Copic 3 class this weekend. Maybe I can squeeze in a little pool time, too. I swear it’s almost too hot to go to the pool! How can that be?

Have a beautiful {cool} day!
