We are feeling inspired by the summer sunshine for our new challenge.  As we leave July and enter August, we are soaking up these waning summer days.  Labor Day and September are right around the corner!  Scary!  So join us by using a summer theme on your card!

Remember to use a stamp older than a year and you must include the age (or approximate age) of the stamp in your blog post. After all – we want to give these old stamps some love!

Are you on Facebook?  If you share our challenge on your Facebook page, we will happily share your post!

To be considered for a Top Pick and to receive comments - be sure to link your card below!

Be sure to play along with us! This challenge ends August 10, 2018.

Our lovely guest designer for this challenge is Catherine Roffey.  Cathy blogs at her aptly named Cathy's Card Spot and provides a luscious array of cards that show off her sweet clean style.  Be sure to stop by Cathy's blog and be inspired by the beauty that lies within!

Enjoy the inspiration of the design team!
