i love lazy summer days... especially when there's good news!

Yes, I do love lazy summer days... and today is an extra special one! Did you happen to see the news on the Sparkle Creations blog that I... yes me!... have the HONOR and distinct PLEASURE of being one of Sparkle's design team members??? Yes indeed!!! Yay!!!


I am soooo happy, not only because I LOVE to see people living their dreams, but because Sparkle Creations images are just my cup of tea!

The store opens next Saturday, July 10th, but there are lots of previews and blog candy give-aways going on right now on the Sparkle Creations blog. You need to pop over there and see what all the excitement is about and get in on the fun!

I also have the distinct honor of guest designing this month at Sketch Saturday, one of my FAVORITE sketch challenge blogs, where my fellow Sparkle Creations Design Team member Simonne Clay (aka Sem) and I will showcase Sparkle Creations stamps all month long!!!

My card today follows this week's Sketch Saturday sketch #110. I turned the sketch on its side so that I could fussy cut the greeting out of this wonderful 72 & Sunny DP by We R Memory Keepers. It's perfect for Swimming Lucy, don't you think?

I think I'm going to follow Lucy's cue and float around in the pool with a drink in hand!

Be sure to pop over to Sketch Saturday and join us for this week's sketch and to see the AMAZING design team samples. To say I'm in awe to be working with them this month is an understatement. You KNOW how much I love a good sketch challenge, and Sketch Saturday is among the BEST. You'll also have a chance to win TWO Sparkle Creations stamps!

And please stay tuned for more Sparkle Creations... the grand opening is just a week away!

Have a lovely, relaxing, lazy Saturday, my friends!

Hope indeed you do follow Lucky's cue -- this is just a delightful card and you are certainly "worthy" of your new DT assignment -- Congrats!

theneon said...

ahhh, should have said "Lucy's" cue -- Lucky is the name of my dog! -- but he loves to bask around the pool near a drink!
