Check to the designs the DT came up with this week:
Karen Amidon...that's me!
Kittie Caracciolo



Time to get those toes painted and sport those Flip Flops! Is this wreath adorable or what?! I was inspired by a card that the very talented Jenny Gropp made last year which can be seen here! Io has some of the cutest summer dies and these Flip Flops are so much fun. The wreath was very easy to make. I have used fun foam  for my base. The die was run a few times on different pattern dp. The flops were then glued to the circle base and embellished with the Tiny Flowers die and enamel dots, easy peasy! 



The inside was made using the larger set of the Flip Flop dies. These were embellished with daisy ribbon and Viva Peal Pen. Ahhhh, "sweet summer days"!
