Summer Solstice Greetings!


With Summers being so miserable here in Arizona,
we have to look to something to celebrate!!
Today, on the First Day of Summer, it reached 110 degrees
with the high being 114 by the weekend! 
 The only thing that gets me through this heat is the
fact that we never have to shovel snow or put chains on our tires... 

Pattern background stamped and heat embossed by me!  Yep, getting to where I emboss anything that stands still long enough!  Watch out, Lizzy!


Challenges entered:
Easy Crafts Projects (Photo inspiration, Colors)

Moxie Fab World (Tuesday Trigger, Polka Dots)

Waltzing Mouse Designs ("Year of Sketches" challenge,  Clare's sketch) )
I used my new stamp from "Vintage Labels 18"!
I truly love the way these stamps heat emboss!
I do hope everyone is enjoying their very first day of Summer!

I can relate - it gets that hot regularly here in South Australia (though we have a reprieve in Winter)! Love all the stamping on your card.
