Remember When

Hello there, welcome!!!

Today's card is a simple card using bright colors which make me think of Summer!!!  Hence the title of the card... Remember When... remember what Summer is Mother Nature, lol?  I shouldn't complain too much today though, here in the mitten state it is suppose to be nice and sunny with a high of 78!! Whoa!!!!!

The background of my card is using the Distressed Dots stamp.  One of my favorites and i am so sad that it is on the retired list:(  Whatever will i do?  Replace it with something new?  Don't mind if i do!!  Here is a closer look at the Distressed Dots-

Yup, it's dots alright and they do look distressed, hehe:)

For my saying i used the Remember When stamp from the set Word Play (also retiring) and the leaves stamp are from the set My Friend.  I used Whisper White for my base, average size of 4 1/4" x 5 1/2".  I wanted my card to be bright so my dots are stamped in Tangerine Tango ink! I love the color of this ink! It is soooo playful!  To add another splash of color i went with Tempting Turquoise cut at 3" x 4 1/2" and used that as my backing piece for my second sheet of Whisper White cut at 2 3/4" x 4 1/4".  A very simple card but i think that with all the color it really stands out and projects itself as a "bigger" card:)

Well, that's all for today folks.  I hope you were a bit inspired! Until next time...
