Photo Inspired Summer Fun!


Hi there!  I'm haven't been blogging as much (but still trying to visit blogs!) as we are enjoying the full treats of summer!  Sleeping in, hanging out in our pool, trips to the beach, playing outdoors!!  I have been so rejuvenated this past week and grateful the hustle and bustle of our insanely busy lives has slowed down some :)  We still have ds's Karate x3 per week and the girls are enjoying their Music Theater summer camp, but WOW, what a rest we've gotten overall - woot, woot! :)

Fresh Brewed Designs is back again this week with a new challenge - a photo challenge inspired by this photo.   I pulled the colors of navy, blue, white and orange and created my card this week, using Hula Daisy - a new digi release!

    I'm so pleased to read that you are finding yourself rejuvenated these days. I'm full time this semester (through to the end of July) so crafting and commenting are sparse - although I've had these week off and it's been SUCH a blessing!
