Just another manic Monday

Hola!

Well after all that Halloween fun it's time to get back into summer mode with my card for Maire's Monday Mania challenge over at CA&Friends. It's a nice and easy one this week to use ribbons and/or bows on a card. Seeing as how I've probably got enough ribbon to wrap myself up like a mummy (LOL) it's always good to have an excuse to use a little now and then. ;)

For my main image I did a bit of altering by adding DeeDee's head to Summer's body... I just love how she came out, perfect for a day at the park during summer break. Seriously, head swapping is always an easy way to change things up and get even more mileage out of your stamps. :)

Alrighty then time for me to get to work on things... told ya this week was going to be busy!
TTYL!

  2. What a great stamp combo! I love her little rainbow shirt and super cute hair :0) That thermometer just cracked me up because it needs to go a little higher than 90 lately!
