Yay! It's July! Do you know what that means? I'm the guest artist for my fabulous friends over at Technique Tuesday. I get the delight of playing along with them for the whole month!
Most of the party will revolve around the new Studio AE stamps designed by Ali Edwards. I have been a huge fan of Ali since, oh I'd say, 2004. Yep, we go way back. Hee, hee. Actually, we have met several times and even spent a day with a few others shopping and scrapping. I can attest that this gal has both a huge talent and a huge capacity for good humor and good friendships.
So, how about a peek at the new AE set?
Being that it IS July - Ali has done up a wonderful set for summer. Super cute sentiments all about sunshine and good times. I love it. I used this stamp in a simple way to compliment the background of the card (which I misted in stripes - go me!). Ail's handwriting is so cute, you don't need much else.
So, what do you think? Has summer arrived in your corner of the world? Tell me about it!
Later.
Um, yea, DC here reporting in. Summer arrived and brought us "El Derecho" storm - like a tornado only straight. LOTS of damage, fortunately we and my family were spared -- well except my sister who was without power, but I didn't hear from her again so I figure it came on. It's still HOT.

really like the background on your card. How did you create the misted stripes?

I've always loved Ali and her unique handwriting. I've got several ofher stamp sets and this is one I'd love, as well.
I love the misted background - it sets off the tag - simple and summerlike!
Yes! Summer has hit the midwest with temps in the 90's, nasty thunderstorms, and humidity high enough to curl my straight hair! I am thankful for a/c this week!
