There are two celebrations going on in my life this week! The first one is my youngest granddaughter's birthday She and her sweet husband have just returned from a Greek honeymoon so I have decided to create a Texas beach card for her big day! Our beaches don't compare to those on the Mediterranean Sea, but I hope she will get a kick out of it.
This Kitchen Sink Stamps sponsored design uses images from the following sets:
Summer Splashes
Beachcomber's Bounty
Make a Big Statement
Rubber Ducky
I folded a scrap of designer paper to create the towel and added some sticker jewels to embellish the flip flops!
This card has been entered in the following challenge:
Cardz 4 Galz - Challenge #227 - Summer Fun
The second celebration, of course, is Father's Day. My dad has always delighted in putting out the American flag on this front porch on patriotic holidays. At 95 years old, he is no longer able to manage that trip up the ladder. As part of his Father's Day gift this year, my sister and I have enrolled him in the "Lease a Flag" Program sponsored by a local Boy Scout Troop. They will place a flag in his front yard the week of every patriotic holiday throughout the year! I think he will love his gift!!
Below is the card I have created to let him know about his gift.

ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful Summer themed cards Lynn! I love that beach card with the yellow duckie and the flag is a great idea for your dad's card! I've never heard of doing that, but that is really cool for him as a gift! Happy birthday to your DGD as well!
