Wishing you oceans of joy

It's been over a week that I actually sat down to make something crafty and feeling much better since catching a nasty cold. I found this Lala Land stamp called "Beach Marci" in the store last week and had to have it. She's so cute in her swimsuit. I used a Fiskars border punch for the edge of the orange cardstock. And the stamped words are a clear set from Hero Arts called oceans of joy.
Lately I've been feeling kind of lazy and not really in the crafting mood. So today I attempted to rearrange my craft area hoping that would motivate me to make something. I did find things that I forgot I even had. Some of them are so old that they ended up in the trash.
Well, thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful evening!!!

CUTE! Love her summer tan! If you don't mind my asking, what colors did you use for her tan & blush? I just used that image too, but, now that I see yours, mine looks so pale.
Love your color combo too!

Oh, sorry to hear that you've been so under the weather. Do take care Cheryl! I'm so happy that you can still create and produce such a sweet card using Beach Marci! She's colored beautifully! :)

Glad you're feeling better, Cheryl! Seems like a lot of people are catching this summer cold.

Really cute card, the orange and pink make it so retro '70s, really cute!

What a cute card! I'm like you, house is still slowly but surely getting unpacked. I'm finding craft boxes everywhere in the house so I don't have all my supplies in one place. What a pain and makes me not want to craft even if I'm in the mood, it takes me right out of it! LOL! Hope all is well! Glad I have the blogs to keep up with all my Hawaii friends! hi to Clift for me! Take care and have a great weekend!
