First week of summer - GONE!

Morning!

I can NOT believe it is already Friday and the first week of summer vacation is over. :(  

I will not do this each week, I will not do this each week  . . . 

I love having the kids home for summer and they do too!  

This week was one of two weeks I have "scheduled" for them with a half day golf camp.  They've been chatting about pars, bogeys, back swing, and chipping with their dad.  I've been in a fog about what they are talking about and I'm okay with that. :)

With my mornings free I've been working on some cards for an upcoming card buffet and I hope I can find a free date where you can come make some cards for ALL Occasions!

On to today's card.  This is one I made for general swaps at Convention.  Less that two weeks to go!

 

It's a pretty simple card but there is a bit of prep involved.  Can't find this stamp in the catalogue??

It's the Birthday Candles Jumbo Wheel 130111 $10.50

I unmounted the wheel onto the Clear - Mount Cling foam.  How you ask?  With an exacto knife cut the rubber along the seam and place onto the foam (sticky side).  Trim around with scissors.

Clear - Mount Cling Foam 124236 $13.50 It comes with 2 big sheets!

 And made two stamps. 

One larger stamp great for a focal image and the small one works great for backgrounds.  If you want you could easily cut the small 5 candle stamp into individual candles too!

After I unmounted my stamp I used my Brights markers and coloured each candle.  It took a little time to make multiples of this card but I liked how they turned out!

What do you think?

Thanks for checking in and have a great weekend!

Cheers,
