Happy Wednesday!!!
It is very cool here this morning. I really wonder about this weather lately. WOW!!! We had hail twice over the past week. I have not seen hail since I was a young child. As quickly as the storm came, it was gone. The kids thought it was neat and a little scary. ;)

This week we are simply asking you to create something

Bring On The Sunshine!!! Saturday Reminders

Good Morning! I am sitting here sipping my coffee looking out the window hoping for a not too hot but dry and nice day. Is that asking too much ;)?? My son has a make up tee ball game this morning so we will be moving and grooving early this Saturday.

We have a lovely lady named Rhonda that is going to be our guest designer featured on the blog every Saturday for our reminder post. She has created this ADORABLE sweetie of a card for you today! Be sure to stop in and leave Rhonda some love!!! (Isn't that sentiment just PERFECT?!?!)

Rhonda's Card
Daisy Sunbathing

Heather's Cards

Cutie Pie Mermaid Rubber Stamp

Whisper: The Fairy

(you can read more details and find
the material lists for my cards here)

My favorite color is purple but I am always challenged when I try to use it on a card. Not sure why. That is another reason I chose the purple and green inspiration photo for Freshly Brewed Challenges this week. Both of these cards go for the challenge ~ but the cutie pie also works for the MONTH LONG PRIZE CHALLENGE: Beach / Summer theme! You CAN combine other FBD challenges with the prize challenge, so what are you waiting for???

If you have FBD images ~ why not use them. There are bonuses for you if you do. We spot something we LOVE and just have to share, boom, you are a featured card on the blog and facebook. Post in the challenges section and your card gets counted twice! AND there is a special place in the sidebar for you to link all of your FBD creations to. It is called "Calling All Cardmakers". Link all of your cards there for a chance to be featured, win a prize, and/or be a guest designer for an upcoming month or hop!!!

Hope you all have a beautiful weekend!
HUGS AND SMILES!!!
