A Summer Day…



…. definitely can use some money for ice cream or other fun stuff.

OMG… just when i have most of my cards ready for the time when we are gone, i received the new Whiff Of Joy Summer Kit “
Fun in the Sun”stamps. I had to make a card with this cute boy… especially since i had this layout in my mind since Cute Card Thursdays Challenge a couple of weeks back.

I thought this image works great for a teenage boy to give some money. In our case I was thinking to give it to the neighbor’s kid for taking care of our yard during the time we are gone. I did not want to “waste” my expensive embellishments because i know kids in that age, rather care about what’s inside the card :-) than what stuff i add. So the layout i hope make’s the card hopefully a bit more exciting than a simple square one
.

Stamps: Whiff Of Joy’s handsome summer boy can be found in the Summer kit
Papers: my favorites… :-) are by last years My Minds Eye line
Embellishments:
all from Cute Stamps and Cards, Ribbon (Stampin up)Now as for other fantastic news… Whiff of Joy is releasing some other new suuper cute images called City Girls 2 and you can win 3 of the new stamps, you can pick if you enter my blog candy which i will have up tomorrow :-)

Gorgeous card Claudia and a good idea: Teenagers often prefer money to buy themselves something nice.
