The colors on my card, Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo and Abandoned Coral reflect the hot and humid weather we are experiencing the last few days since the rains have stopped. My circle summer activities was made using Taylored Expressions Summer Vibes Background stamped in versamark ink and gold heat embossed. I decided to help with the sun rays we needed some shades which are from TE’s Shades of Summer stamp and die set as is the sentiment.
Today’s card will be shared with:

Thanks, Diane, it was fun to make and thanks for another challenge.
Cute, fun card. I really like how you set the sunglasses of the edge of the circle.
Thanks, Gerry.
As soon as I saw this I thought it was a great card for the summer. What a good idea and I like your colour choices too. Adding the sunglasses makes it a fun card.
Thanks, Johanna, it was fun to use the sketch for the design too.
WOW! That is a very bold and graphic take on the sketch! I love that ombre centre strip but it’s the touches of black that make everything pop. The sunglasses are just perfect. Thanks for sharing with us again at As You See It.
Thanks, Jan, I was glad that I added the black and glad you commented on it. Thanks for another fun challenge.

What a great design and pretty colors! love teh gold embossing! Thank you so much for joining in with us at Four Seasons challenge!
This is so fun Gayle! I love the ombre strip that draws the eye to that embossed circle with so much detail and the sunglasses are a fun extra touch. A great summer vibe! Thanks for playing with us over at As You See It this week!
Love this Gayle!
Gayle, I was fascinated by all the gold embossed images in the center circle and found myself wishing I could enlarge both it and the sunglasses, just to see more detail! The pink and gold palette is a great one to evoke the summer heat though! Thanks for joining us this week as As You See It Challenges!
Perfect card for the sketch challenge! Love the soft summer colors and the gold embossed “summer vibes” as your focal panel. Cute glasses, too!
Congratulations on your honorable mention!
Thanks, Lisa.
