Summer Smiles for Rose Blossom Garden Challenge #10

Happy Labor Day Weekend which in the USA signifies the end of summer and back to school!  The challenge for the last 2 weeks of August at the Rose Blossom Garden is to use a summer theme and the Artbooking Family key (page 67).  This is probably one of the fastest cards I ever made (although the planning of it took some thought!)  I really liked the photo mats from page 67 and decided to "frame up" a scene from Surf's Up paper.  I cut photo mat 1 at Real Dial Size at 4" and then chose a section of the paper to highlight.  I stamped a greeting "Summer Smiles" (from Summer Wishes set retired CTMH) in Pacifica ink in the top right hand corner.  The final touch was the application of Stardust Glitz Glitter Gel on the top of the wave part of the frame.  I also placed the framed picture on the card so that the bottom and right side were white--just to add a little bit more interest. 

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful week filled with fun and creativity!
