Summer time...honestly when I hear those words together I think of DJ  Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince...yes, I'm showing my age.  

Check out my Summer time card:

paper:  studio calico brighton pier  stamps:  verve stamps/get together ink:  ranger archival black  other:  little b pineapple

It's been awhile since I've teamed up gray and pink...it's so sweet, isn't it?  I smiled real big when I placed that glorious pineapple on the card.  I've been hoarding those.  I might have 3 pkg's of them.

Love the Verve Stamps - Get Together set.  Did you know that Verve is celebrating their Anni-VERVE-sary this month?  Everything in the store is ON SALE!!!

My card was inspired by Mojo Monday:


Super love this sketch!

ok i love
EVERY
SINGLE
THING
about this gorgeous card (the colors! the combo of patterns! the sentiment! the sketch!) but that flippin' pineapple just kinda made me swoon. yowza! what a card!

(ps: when i hear "summertime" i think of sly and the family stone; (aka "hot fun in the...") which dates me exponentially more than said fresh prince. & for that matter sly could get pretty jiggy, back in the day, when you think about it. a man ahead of his time, lol!!) :) :) :)
