Today is going to be one last birthday celebration!  (it got postponed a couple of times :)  A friend and I are going for a drive up to Grand Mesa for some sight seeing and lunch and just a fun day out!   It will be a nice change in temperature too (we broke our record high on Friday - it hit 108!   Yikes, it's been hot!)  But it should be much cooler up on the mountain - and I'm hoping for lots of wild flowers!  

Have a great day!

The card - oh my gosh.....I LOVE this new Peach set (SU).  (Just 10 miles down the road is where the very best peaches are grown!  I wait all year for the Palisade peaches to get ripe and then I eat them every day until the last of the season!  So I had to get this set when I saw it!)   It's very cool and the paper to match is so pretty too.    So, the card....   there is a piece of patterned paper in the  background (green).  The top layer is a piece of white with another piece of patterned paper on the right side.  The peaches and leaves are stamped, die cut and then popped up.  I sponged and added speckles with a bit of color in the background and stamped just a few of the small flowers (although most of them got covered up!)  There is a bit of ribbon under the peaches but it didn't show up well in the photo.  

Today - playing with stamps again.  Have a couple more new things left to play with!  😀

Have a wonderful day!
