What can I say about my Sunday… well, for starters this was pretty much my view for the day…
That was at 7:30am but you can see that it was a perfect day! They had the Long Beach LGBT Pride on the Beach weekend and Jim had to be there for work so I spent the day with him on the boardwalk. I got to see a lot of people from FREE where I used to work and also got to meet a few people from Jim’s work and they were awesome peeps! I sometimes forget that I live on an island with pretty nice beaches! We were there until 6:00. After we packed up the car we stopped and got some dinner and went back to Jim’s to eat. The perfect end to a wonderful, amazing weekend! š
To start off the week I have my card for this week’s Paper Players challenge…
Once again I just wanted to stamp! I created a card base out of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and masked off a section near the top. In that section I stamped the balloons from the Simon Says Stamp Birthday Bits Photopolymer Stamp Set and outlines in Slate, Catkin, Lake Shores and Duckling. After I removed the masks I added a strip of Black 110lb Card Stock to the top and bottom of the stamped area. Just one thing left, I stamped the greeting in Slate and finished! Super simple and extremely mailable! Win-win! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Paper Players Challenge! Thank you for once again starting your week off with me! Have an extremely excellent Monday! š

Beautiful picture, Justin. Looks like you had a nice day at the beach. It was very hot here and supposed to be for several days. Love your card in those colors, which look transparent. Great job! Have a wonderful day, my friend.
Thank you HJ! It was such a nice day! Cool under the tent but nice and warm in the Sun! Glad that you like the card! Hope you enjoyed your day! š
This card rocks!!!! Soft…clean..simple…perfect!
Thank you very much Michael! š
Love this one Justin and I agree with HJ that the balloons look transparent which I find fascinating. Yesterday was definitely a beach day here – into the 90’s but the humidity wasn’t welcome by me. Had the A/C’s going for the first time this year. Great photo. Take care my friend – love and hugs to you! š XXOO
Tank you Grace! I love that Stamp Set, it’s nice and simple! Glad that you had your AC’s in! The beach was lovely! Love and hugs to you! XOXO š
Great pic! I just love the ocean.
Pretty card! Love the font on the sentiment.
Thanks Gerri! Me too, I don’t go enough!
Glad that you like the card too! š
What a beautiful view. I could look at that all day. why do weekends go by so fast?
I had to work downtown today, flippin 2.5 hour drive in the morning. Not a great way to start the week. But the skyline is beautiful.
Great card, love these colors together
It was a wonderful day Linda! I was so glad that I got the opportunity to go!
You do love your downtown commute don’t you?! Glad that you like the card too! š
This is such a cool way to use these colors….I love how they overlap and look translucent! And black is such a great complement! Thanks for using my colors this week and sharing this with the Players!
Thank you LeAnne! It’s a fun little stamp set! Have a fantastic week! š
