"Attention Sunshine"

I am redoing this blog post... it was lost due to Blogger's Issue!

Good Morning Everyone! I hope y'all are getting ready for the upcoming weekend! I sure am! I have some projects left on my to do list, but it sure is looking alot better than it did! LOL! Sometimes I wonder if we ever truly get caught up? Do you? Anyways, on with the show... I know you have places to go, people to see, and things to do! LOL!

This creation was created for Freshly Brewed Designs! It was a card kit that I purchased from Heather... to bring about the excitement of her NEW Summer Line of Rubber Stamps! Aren't they adorable? I think so, these are called "Summer Accessories" (you can find it under the cling mount red rubber). I can vouch for the stamps, wonderful deep etched red rubber, and they stamp out like a dream. So no worries when purchasing them from Freshly Brewed Designs. Be sure to stop in and see the whole line! I bet there will be some that you just have to have! I know I did! LOL!
