Pals Summer Sunshine Blog Hop

It's time for some fun in the sun with the Pals! Glad you could join us for the Pals Summer Sunshine Blog Hop! You've probably hopped over from Maggie Mata at Maggie Made Cards.  I'm stop number 11 on the Pals Hop and I'm glad you hopped in! I'll help you "hop along" from blog to blog where you'll find great ideas for summer themed Stampin' Up! projects from the Stampin' Pretty Pals! Should you hop off course, simply click on any of the links in the Pals Hop Line-up below and you'll be back on track.

My card is all about bright, sunny summer time fun.  I used the Bright Blossoms stamp set using ink colors in Daffodil Delight, Tangerine Tango and Lucky Limeade.


The Designer Series Paper is from the Summer Smooches collection. I just love lining up strips of this paper to make a sunny statement of color and design.


Just a little extra touch of a Designer Button with a quick tie of Baker's Twine

    I have to say I really love how you took the Summer Smooches DSP and went with a softer look. There is still alot of color but I love that you left out the brightness of the Rich Razzleberry... it makes me look at the DSP a little different now because the other was almost too much. I just love the 'quieter' look to this card. It makes me feel relaxed as summer should be in my book:)

      What an amazing comment. I agree that this DSP can almost "slam" you down with all it's smoochiness. Going strip by strip kind of tames the smooch so you can just relax and enjoy it. Thanks for sharing!
