STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- Stampin’ Up! Polka Dot Parade Designer Series Paper (DSP) adds a fresh touch of color and pattern. This DSP was one of my Stampin’ Pretty Top 10 Favorites in the 2012-2013 Annual Catalog.
- Simple sunflowers were created with the Boho Blossoms Punch and 1/2″ Circle Punch.
- Sweet mini tags! The Lovely Little Labels stamps are designed to work with the Little Labels Punch Pack.

this is soooo cute…i know i will be trying to copy this…thanks for the idea…i love it
lose the buttons. they are distracting.
but the one button is ok where it is.
I think buttons are nice but I often don’t
like them on cards.
What a great design! All of the white really sets off the colors!
Cheery and bright. Love it!
Love this – Summer colours for me are bright & cheerful – Daffodil Delight/Melon Mambo/Pacific Point
Clever girl! Why didn’t I see sunflowers in this color palette!? Gorgeous as usual!
Bright and pretty card, Mary! When I think of summer I think of the blue skies and white fluffy clouds, yellows, greens, pinks, purples and some reds…. TFS!
Who would have thought that burgundy and brown would go together. I love it!
Simply elegant!
What a sweet summer card Mary. I think of hot colors. Reds, oranges, yellows, and purples mostly. I love Daffodil Delight and it goes so well with so many SU colors. I love the range of options SU gives us.

Hello Mary: Perfect summer colors on this card. I too think of yellows and blues and pinks on summer. I’ll throw in the color red because it’s been RED HOT up here this week, sheeeeesh!! today we’ll have another super hot, 103 degree day so we’ll take the kids to the pool for sure.
Have a great day!
Maria.
very fun reading your color choices that you associate with summer! hugs, m
Sweet happy fun card Mary. Summer to me is yellow, royal blue with white (as in boat canvas), turquoise, peach and hot pink!
This is gorgeous! Love how perky and fresh the sunflowers look and that sweet little button! I didn’t think I needed polka dot DSP…argh. 🙂 During summer, I think of daffodil delight (sunshine) and tempting turquoise (water). Have a great day!
Love this happy and bright card, Mary! The polka dot DSP is the perfect showcase for your sweet and sunny flowers! Love it! When I think of summer colors, bright yellow, hot pink, and a bold red always come to mind!
