Springtime in the summertime

It’s been a strange summer here in Southern California.  We’ve gone through really warm days where you can fry an egg on the driveway to thunderstorms/lightening/rain all in the blink of an eye.  Yesterday was no different, but I enjoyed what God gave us…springtime weather!  The day made me want to make a spring card and McMahon Five Design’s Springtime Friends digital stamp was just the perfect image:

It was so nice to be able to give my air conditioning system a nice break (and our wallet, too!).  From what I hear, there will be another change in the weather this weekend with possible rain.  Like I said…strange SoCal summer.

  6. Hi Lorelie~

    The weather is so different this year on the entire east coast, also! Did you ever really try to fry and egg on the road or driveway? (Just curoius!)

    This card is so fabulous! I love how fun and bright, and spring-like it is. The colors are just wonderful. I especially love your coloring. That bunny sure looks very happy in this setting.

    Remember~

  14. We are having the same weather in Central WA. There was an amazing lightening show last night and a hail storm this afternoon. Hail in July never happens here. Odd to say the least.
    Love Your card. Simply delightful.
    Hugs and Blessings
