I have two cards to share with you today and neither one of them has anything to do with the upcoming 4th of July celebrations. lol However, they do reflect the slow pace that comes with hot July weather! This first one shows you what happens when a meandering turtle forgets that he shares the world with racing hares and other fast animal traffic. The image is called "Black Eye" and I thought it would be perfect for a Get Well card. :-D
Colored w ProMarkers
Image & Sentiment cut w Unbranded, cross-stitch, dies

Challenges:
This second card is either a salute to or a complaint about the brutal summer weather which arrives in my territory sometime in mid- to late- May every year and stays around until well into September, often into October. Most summer days, I feel exactly like this poor snail - "Exhausted."

Cut with Gina Marie die
Glitter paper 'sun' cut w QuicKutz die
Background paper from scrap basket
Challenges:
I hope we're going to see you playing along with us at QKR Stampede this month. Lots of time to get something made and entered. :-D Happy Crafting. NanaConnie
