It's feeling like Summer! ♥

 
 
It's almost Summer!
My son finished school yesterday and the girls have one more week -
I can't wait! ♥
 
Even though we head to the beach quite a bit,
It's just "feels" different when school is out!
That's one of the first places we'll be!
 
It's mid-way inspiration time at the Newton's Nook Designs
challenge #10 for this week.
The challenge is to use metal and/or cork and/or wood!
 
I was inspired by our outings over the Memorial Day weekend
and created a beachy card using the "SEAson's Greetings" stamp set
and "Around the House" - both available in the shop!
 
 
 
For my card, I used a wooden arrow and faux cork paper as the sandy
backdrop - stamped and cut out the little crab and stamped the fishes
directly onto the paper, too. 
 

 
We'd love it if you play along, too!
Even if you don't have any NND stamps, there are freebies available!
 
Thanks for stopping by today!
Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!
