Waltzingmouse July 2012 Blog Party

Wow, the 17th of the month is here once again, boy does time fly.  I not had a chance to do too many challenge cards this week, I've been so busy with summer camp that I barely have time to check out all of the fabulous blogs I follow.  Since this is a monthly challenge I decided to go ahead and get my card made, this card is for Waltzingmouse's Monthly Blog Party, it was a quick and easy one to put together.  The theme this month is The Great Outdoors, now I have to be honest, I don't have any stamps from WMS that feature the outdoors great or otherwise....I did order a few but they are waiting for me in San Diego so I had to get creative (not much of that left after planning 7 weeks of summer camp) so I had to dig deep, real deep! You will see what I mean when you get a peek of my card that I call "Paris in the Spring Time" So please let me know what you think...thanks a bunch for taking a peek!

    What a wonderful card--and so very creative. I think sometimes we are most creative when we have to stretch ourselves because we don't have the easy answer at our fingertips. I would truly love to be outdoors in Paris, enjoying a cafe at the Eiffel Tower. Your double colored bow is so darling, and the charm is just perfect.

    It's brilliant, Kim! Love the patterned cards and the sweet matching charm!!

    (Sorry, to disappoint you today with no "for reals" Snoopy! If I had a Snoopy stamp, I'd make you a special card!)
