Keep Cool--CMCC No.23 and FMS 139

June 4, 2014

Today is my birthday-----with that being said, I can't think of a better way to spend the morning than having time in my craft room.  The rest of the month is going to be CRAZY with company.  I am waiting on my dear friend, Pam to arrive.  She is going to spend two days with me.  YIPPEE!  Always such a blessing to spend time with her!

I got a new stamp set from Lawn Fawn.  I absolutely love it!  It is called "Swimsuit Season"!  The colors for the Colour Me Colour Challenge are Coastal Cabana and a Neutral.  Coastal Cabana is one of my FAVORITE colors!  The sketch from Freshly Made Challenge is fabulous!  Oh, this will be a go to sketch when I don't have any ideas.  The Design Teams rocked both challenges, so take time to visit their blogs for inspiration!  I hope you enjoy my card and "Keep Cool"!
