Just Us Girls Week 296

Hello and good morning!

I'm excited to share that The ladies at
Invited me to be their Guest Designer for the whole month of June!

Today is the first challenge of the month and it's a word week
Summer


Well, we've had rain, strong winds and cool temperatures... not much sign of summer here and I'm dreaming of the beach


Yep this is Summer to me....


Lazing on the beach with the gentle sound of the waves for company


I think my card should say "Wish I was there!!"

What does the word Summer say to you?
We'd love you to share your interpretations with us at 
this week
Head on over to the Blog to see what the talented team have created to inspire you...

Thanks so much for your visit

Have a great day

~ Ros ~

I love your card - how did you make it? I'd especially like to know what stamp set made the chair. Great job - it does look like the beach! I'll be heading there in 6 days and will breath some salt air for you :-)
