Beach Lemonade

      It's very likely that the area where I live will reach 100 degrees this week and it's only the first third of May, for Heaven's sake!  We always get hot, hot, HOT! weather during our summer months, usually several days in a row of over 100 degrees and when that happens I either stay inside in the craft room air conditioning or I head out for the beach.  I guess this week is perfect for this card I made over the weekend.  These House Mouse mousies have the right idea but they really need to watch that sunburn.  :-D


Colored w ProMarkers
Cut w Die-namics stitched dies
Sentiment printed & cut with Die-namics
Scraps used for mats & frame

     I hope your weather is more pleasant than ours.  If it's not, stay inside and Happy Crafting.  :-D  NanaConnie

Your card is lovely and wish I was there on that beach with those meeces.

100F OH! my goodness Connie, it's a rare year we get a day or two that hot. We are getting over the coldest and driest April in the UK, for over 40 years, frost practically every night. Brr. We have the warmest day we have had for ages at 57C, although rain and colder temperatures for the rest of the week! Brr again!
Keep cool and well and recovering.

Living in Florida I can relate to the Death Valley feel. We get the high heat and the humidity. Some days we get the "real feel" temperatures that really do feel like we're in Death Valley. Bring on the gallons of water.

I love your cute card. And you're correct about the sunscreen. Yikes, we can't live without it here. I love the mouse that's fanning the other mouse relaxing on the beach drinking the cool lemonade. So cute. Thanks for joining us at HMFMC. {Bunny} Designer for House Mouse and Friends
