105º@9pm -oh yeah, it's hot!


please click image to enlarge

i'm not even kidding about the current temperature here in the high desert this evening! whew!
my friend & fellow MFT junkie Chris creates awesome projects! i noticed that she posted some super cute cards on her blog lately that feature some fab digi stamps from a company called Shirley's 2 Girls. Chris recently joined their DT, and i had never visited this company before, so i went & checked 'em out! turns out they have lots of cute digi's and a fun challenge going on too-funny enough the theme is 'heat' and 'hot'-- and since we're definitely staying inside with the AC blasting this weekend- i downloaded a couple images & played along! you should check 'em out & join in too!
i love this whimsical tea digi & it was great fun to color! this one really came together very quickly and i think it's pretty cute!
thanks to Chris for awesome inspo & enabling!

card deets:
digi image & sentiment: Tea Scandal by Shirley's 2 Girls

I've been talking about you and the temps out there because we're having the same heat wave here. It's ungodly hot in NJ. Two night ago I checked the temps, it was 10 degrees cooler in FL.
Thanks for checking out S2G, I'm so glad you like the images. They are fun to color, and your coloring is great. They've got something for every occasion.
And I was checking your blog for GP's not for the challenge but since I'm here, thanks for playing in the Twisted Thursday Challenge.
