Create With Stamping With Friends Creatively Simple 148

It’s A New Theme, A New Month And All About SUMMER!

Welcome to a weekly Create With Stamping Friends Creatively Simple challenge! Connie and I create simple cards every Tuesday and the month of July is all about SUMMER!

Who doesn’t like the beach, or the ocean, or the lake? Do you spend any summer time away where you’ll find water? I used the Seaside Wishes Bundle for my pretty card:

I love that the dies and embossing folder work together in one step to cut and emboss some of the elements from the bundle. See what I mean?
