I hope your all staying cool! It's really hot here on the east coast, mid to high nineties since Saturday with high humidity, its sweltering here, ugh!!! I hope the temperature breaks soon, I can't take this heat! Hubby & I have been going out everyday to escape the heat in our house. I finally managed to get 2 air conditioners in two of the rooms just before the heat arrived, my bedroom & my craft room. I didn't get to do the windows in the den where my computer is but I do have the ceiling fan which helps a little. After the heat wave I will be cleaning the den so that I can put the ac in that room next. No cleaning going on here with this heat it will have to wait for cooler weather.
Anyway on to my card. I made this card for my cousin's birthday, I know he will appreciate this one! I was hoping to have my funny sentiments in on time to use it for this card but they didn't arrive on time, so it just says relax, happy birthday! There's always next year, right? I wanted to let you know this card was colored with the pencils that Gina K. is selling & they are fantastic!!! Their as smooth as butter to work with & they are really cheap, I loved coloring with them & the colors are so vibrant! You use these with OMS also. I heard some people were using baby oil instead of the OMS with good results, I'll have to buy some baby oil to try it out. OK everyone stay cool & thanks for dropping by today!

Great use of BG stamps with your lifeguard Rita!
Your card is so cute Rita, I love that stamp!! You did a fantastic job with your new pencils. Take care and try to stay cool. Before we had two days of severe thunder storms, the weather was very warm and the humidity was a killer! Hopefully the temps. will come down a bit and provide some relief.
