Summer Fun PTI Blog Hop

It is that wonderful day yet again LOL! I adore Papertrey Ink's blog hop every month. It is so much fun to go around and see the fabulous creations and gather fun inspiration from everyone.
This month we were to let the lazy days of summer inspire our creations. Well, I don't know about any of you, but there aren't a lot of lazy days around here. We are so darn busy in the summer. One of my favorite things about summer is summer dresses. Another family favorite is our carnival. It actually started yesterday. Here is a fun picture of Izzy and me in front of our favorite merry go round.

This is a better shot of Izzy's fun summer dress that was my inspiration. I loved all of the abstract flowers and fun colors. Can you believe that her favorite part of the carnival was the bubbles in front of the big slide LOL!

Here is my card

I used some fun PTI buttons, papers and sentiment. I have every button color available right now and I must say the only thing I am lacking is red, purple and a kraft color (wink, wink LOL) I adore the buttons form PTI! They are such great values and selections you really can't go wrong with that.

I really liked the shape of the top notes die. I think it went with my fun abstract theme. Well, I am off to check out all of the other fabulous creations.

It's a good life!
