You bring me sunshine

I'm playing along with the Waltzingmouse Stamps July Blog Party ! This month's theme is the great outdoors, and I used My Island. So fun!

Photobucket

The background was impressed with PTI's Sunrise Impression Plate. I clear embossed with sentiment.

Thanks for coming by!
Melissa

Oh Wow! Love that starburst pattern embossing in orange - so sunny it ties everything together beautifully! That little pop of blue in the water surrounding your island looks so inviting!
