Sittin' and Thinkin'

Halfway through the week! Just love it when we are on the down side of the week. The weather was bee-you-tiful today! Hardly a cloud in the sky and just about 80 degrees. I went for a great walk at lunchtime. It was nice to get away from putting out fires all day. Every time I thought I was going to get something done someone sent me an email with another problem. Fortunately the day finally ended. LOL!
How about a card tonight.

My image is a pre-colored digi from Imagine That! It's the stamp of the month called Beach Blanket Girl. Perfect for summer cards! The sentiment is also part of the set. I cut it out with My Favorite Things Cross Stitched Ovals. The flag is cut from MFT Stitched Fishtail Flags. And finished it off with a Zva rhinestone flourish. The background paper is recycled wall paper that I thought gave the appearance of sand. The triangle and flag are from my scrap box paper.  I used the Tuesday Morning Sketch as my inspiration.

I am entering these challenges:
Do you like free digital stamps? This month at Imagine That! you can jump into the progressive challenge for free. Go to the link for this month's challenge, download the free parts of the Beach Blanket Girl set, make and enter your card, and next month you'll be in for more free digis. Who doesn't like free stamps? I hope you'll play along!
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at my creations. Time to do a little exercise and then hopefully crafting. Take care and see you soon!
