Here comes the Sun!


It has been so hot the past few days! I guess our two weeks of spring is over. I was wishing for the cold to be gone, but I am not quite ready for the intense desert heat of summer yet. I am one of those scrappers who is only able to feel inspired to scrap certain pictures during the time they were taken, for example: Christmas pictures must be scrapped during Christmas time, Halloween pictures in the fall, etc... so that said, I made a summer layout yesterday. The new bingo boards and calling cards from Tattered Angels got me thinking about these pictures I took at the Aquarium back in 2003. I have been gathering supplies for years for these pictures waiting for just the right thing to make them pop. The bingo cards and inspiring summer colors of glimmer mist have turned out to be just the thing. There are two other themes for these cards too, family and outdoors. There are so many things you can do with them (love that). I am hoping for a busy week of creating, so let's hope my mojo holds up, and this darn flu will leave me. Have a great week everyone!

Hey there Cheryl. Love the layout. I love bright oranges and green and turquoises for summer stuff. Hey if you can bring that paper on Wednesday and I will try to swing by and get it. I will for sure be there if I don't pick up my check tomorrow afternoon. But either way I will try to swing by on Wednesday.
Have a good day and hope you are feeling better soon.

I love your layout. You put the bingo card to good use and made it look as it it were specifically made just for the layout. Thanks for sharing

Hope you are feeling better soon....LOVE this layout, esp. the 'rainbow' A. Did you paint each stripe with GM?

Hi Lois, for the rainbow behind the letter I used the torn edge from the circle mat and cut it into strips. Then I adhered the strips to a piece of white cardstock. I placed the letter adhesive side down over the rainbow strips and cut around the letter. Good to hear from you!
