Sunshine Single Stamp Archives - Libby Fens, Stampin' Up! Demonstrator

Summer sunshine, welcome? Why, yes. Today is the summer solstice, June 21st.

Here in Texas, however, it’s always sunny. And, it always feels like summer!

To showcase my homage to summer, I decided to go with Freshly Made Sketches, challenge #91. It was the perfect sketch for a simple card that simply, shines! No pun or sun intended! Lol!

Simple card to create. I embossed the background in the Cloudy Day Embossing Folder – so sad it didn’t carry over. Made my ‘sun’ from a circle, several Pennant Punches and, surprise, the new Mosaic Punch. Did you realize that? Stamped a sentiment. Made a border. And, done!

So, happy first day of summer! And, happy Friday! Here’s to getting through another scorcher of a summer.

Happy Stampin’

Did you attend the Stampin’ Up Regional in Dallas this past weekend? I did. I hope you were lucky enough to receive one of my adorable SWAPS.

I made 3. That was incredible considering the week I had prior. And, of course, I made multi-step cards too! Nothing like staying up the night before in the hotel finishing up swaps! Thanks Nancy and Carolyn!

I wanted to show off something a little different, maybe unexpected. I went with the Single Stamp Set Assortments 3 & 4. And, I wanted to make something that reminded me of my girls.

Hello, Foxy because my oldest daughter seems to like foxes. She’s had a few stuffed animals and such. It looks just one of them. Just made me smile!

Sunshine because my other daughter, I have always referred to as my sunshine. So, when I saw this one – I was all over it.

So, hence the two heat embossed beauties! I got lots of positive comments about those and the mini pennant card I made.

So, please, if you received one of them, I’d love to hear from you.

Happy Swappin’
