Hello to you and to the month of June! Summer is just around the corner and this card makes me want to go apple picking (isn't that a fall activity though? I must have skipped the hot, sweaty summer). This card was included in the hostess thanks gift I gave as a door prize at my last workshop. But stupid me did not take a picture of the whole kit and kaboodle! It was arranged in a square tin that was decorated with rub-ons. In the tin I included this card, a covered notebook and a watermarked writing pad. Very cute and summery.

Stampin' Up! has extened the date for the Occassions Mini Catalogue. Instead of ending the end of May, you can now order product right though to June 30, 2008. The stamp set used for this card, Tart & Tangy is in the Occassions Mini on page 14. Also as a reminder all printed prices have been lowered by 7% in both the Spring/Summer collection and the Occassions Mini catalogues.

I know! Here it is almost Father's Day and I'm posting another Mother's Day card. I have some catch up to do seeing that it's been so hectic here lately. Each day I strive to produce a new card or work on a scrapbook page, so far I have been successful only once. So here is to a new June, my birthday in 5 days and wishes to my mom to get better soon.

When I set out to use the paper in the hostess paper pack I had no idea that this was Apricot Appeal. I thought it was So Saffron. But to my delight this colour works really well with the Basic Grey and the beautiful Grey taffeta ribbon!
