Hi Everyone! Carri at DoubleClick- AKA Abusybee asked if I wanted to be a Guest Designer in June...and I said YES!!! Hehe I love Carri's blog and all the projects she makes...especially her Skittles that she makes. There are so many colors to choose from. It's nice to add that little extra to a project, especially when you can't think of what it needs. Skittles work great :)

My project I wanted a beach theme..we know Summer we think of the Beach...well I do..hehe. I knew the skittles would work great as coconuts on my palm tree.

Enjoy The Summer! Lemonade and Watermelon!

Sometimes it is hard to enjoy the summer in Arizona because it is just too hot out to do anything! Today our temps are sitting at 104 and that is not hot yet!  And when summer comes along so do scorpions! I have killed 2 in the last 3 days, which is not good since summer has just started!

I managed to squeeze in a fun summer card since there are so many summer challenges going on!

I made this a business size card because I will be trying to mail skittles inside of it!
