Throughout the month of June, I'm trying to use my favorite retiring products. While many will continue to live in my "stash", they won't appear on this blog again. Here is a card that says, "It's so hot outside, that I dream of cooler temperatures…"
I used Pick A Petal and Afterthoughts stamp sets, both of which will retire at the end of this month. (Afterthoughts is a Hostess set, which you can earn for hosting a home workshop with sales of $150.) Although I rarely use bright colors on my cards, today I chose Melon Mambo, Concord Crush and Old Olive. I love this combination! It's hot, hot, hot!!
Look at the petal at the "4 o'clock" position. I painted it with Crystal Effects, to make it shine, and cut it out and attached it to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals. Very fun!
Until next time,
Happy Stamping!

I feel like I’m always reaching for Melon Mambo these days – lol.
Thanks!
Fabulous!!! I absolutely LOVE Melon Mambo — such a happy, summer-y color! And this is such a great layout. The whole feel of the card is extra-special with the flower design partway off the page. You know I will be CASE-ing this one soon!!
