FTTC#230 Flat Christmas

This week's Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge is a Christmas in July with a catch theme!  I don't know why making Christmas cards in July is so much fun.  I don't know if it's thinking of temps cooler than 110* or if it's the fact that I'm not trying to make 3 billion of them & one seems really fun... maybe a combination of the two!!  LOL

Stamps: Christmas Classics Flourishes
C/S: Cherry Red (GKD), white
DP: from the scrap box
copics, red brads, Circles Retro Sizzix ef

Flourishes is having a birthday celebration... they turn 6!!!!  They are kicking off their celebration by having some fun challenges.  The first one is to create a black & white card.    Even though there was no coloring involved & only one dp drawer to look through, I still had a hard time trying to decide which set to use!  LOL!

Personal

We are in Ohio for a major archery event-- JOAD Nationals. This post is mainly for Grandma! *wink*

We made it!!!  WOO HOO!!!  Only 16 hours in the car over 2 days!

You can't imagine how hard riding is!  *grin*

This is the field where we will be shooting this week.  It's a huge field, but that's also a HUGE thundercloud.

We got to go up in the arch in St. Louis.

In the tram car to go up... Kevin & I had to fit in there too!

The might Mississippi!  (And yes, those socks & shoes came off & they had to play in it.  They would have been soaked, but they knew we were going to eat after we finished!!  )

I Scream for Ice Cream

I can't believe that I haven't used this stamp with the ice cream.  Summer is half over, already!!!  I'm hungry for ice cream now!  *wink*

I made this for this weeks's House Mouse & Friends Challenge ~theme food

FMS93 Roses

Here is my submission for this week's Freshly Made Sketches.  I know that I've already used this set this year & I'm really trying to use ALL of my stamps, but when I saw the sketch I thought of these roses.  I tried to pull out something else, but kept going back to them, so that's what I went with!  There's still plenty of time to use the others, right?!  *wink*
