Goodbye Gone Surfing!

Really, the title should be Surfing USA!  That song runs through my head every time I use this stamp set to make a card.    And, today was no different!

When I first saw this stamp set, it reminded me of my husband and I when we used to go and visit all the garden centers every April looking for the perfect pot of geraniums!  We would buy several and put two in the front on each side of the garage and several on the back deck.  And yes, we had a red pickup! This year we still haven’t done… Read More »
