It's A Summery Sparkly Sentimental Kinda Hop

Happy Father's Day to all you Dads out there I pray you have a wonderful day!
Are You Ready?
Tuesday, June 21st, is the official first day of summer in the northern hemisphere and we are ready for all the summer fun to begin. For our friends down under who are moving into their winter months and may not feel like creating a summery project, they may be making “Sparkly or Shimmery” projects. What girl doesn’t like her bling?
You should have arrived here from AMY'S Blog,. If you didn't arrive from her blog and would like to join in the hop, please start at the Sentimental Sundays challenge blog.

For my card I had to use this new stamp set from Sweet 'n Sassy. I grew up near the beach and let me tell ya I MISS it!  I took for granted that on a whim I could just jump in my car and head to the beach because it was only 45 mins away.  To give it some sparkly I added a touch of shimmer to the water.

We hope you will join in our “Summery or Sparkly” (plus a sentiment) challenge this week. Our sponsor is the marvelous Ann Vento of Raindrop Echo Designs. This prize will be four INDIVIDUAL sentiment sets from the Raindrop Echo Designs Whimsy Stamps Digital Collection
Your next stop on the hop is Tracey. Please make it big, bold, easy to see.) If you should happen to get lost along the way, you can find the blog hop list over at the Sentimental Sundays challenge blog. Don't forget to leave comments along the way because there are 3 mystery DT members who will each choose a winner from the comments left on their blog hop posts. The winners will each win a $10 gift certificate to Whimsy Stamps! The hop ends on Friday, June 24th at midnight EST. The winners will be announced on the Sentimental Sundays challenge blog on Sunday, June 26th. So, hop on over to the next stop and good luck!
Thank you so much for stopping by.

Save The Date

I am going to be gone for a couple weeks, but I have things scheduled to post hopefully blogger will cooperate because I am not sure how much if any internet access I will have. I wanted to share this quick CAS card with you made for yesterday's sketch challenge at SplitCoast Stampers SC337. I love playing along with the sketch challenge because Roxie has some great sketches and when she is away she asked
Korin to fill in who always has a great sketch I am sure that is why Roxie asks her to fill in. You can find a new sketch f hers every week at The Sweet Stop.

Inspired By Song

This week at Sentimental Sundays we are all Inspired By A Song. I am a music person, I love listening to music as I create. I listen to music way more than I watch tv. My card is inspired by a song I used to listen to in my younger days growing up on the east coast near Myrtle beach. We would shag to the song that inspired my card "Beach Fever" by The Chairman Of The Board and many others. I still love listening to beach music especially now that I am in Colorado a long way from the beach , I miss the beach more than I thought I ever would.
To play along with us create your project inspired by a song and link it to the Sentimental Sundays challenge blog. While you are there don't forget to pick up your freebies for they are only free the week of the challenge. If you post to an online gallery please use keyword sentimentalsundasys58. Can't wait to see what song inspires you.
