Summer Fun!

The Stamp Club ladies had a wonderful time Friday night with these fun summer-themed cards.  We even had watermelon margaritas and a watermelon dessert made of Sherbet to add to the summer fun!  Yum!  Here are the cards we made and a picture of the refreshments just for fun.

Inside of the Margarita Card

The idea for the Margarita Hang in There card came from a cute sample made by Mary Ellen Stites.  Her card was an adorable martini, but you can see how I got the idea.  You can see her original image here.

The idea for the Kindness Means so Much card is a direct case, except for the sentiment, from Susan Horr.  Unfortunately, I don't have a webpage link for her, but want to thank her so much for the inspiration and her permission to CASE her work!

YUM!!  Not the best lighting, but you get the idea.
