Try it on Tuesday - Summertime

Well... it is definitely Summer in Southern Ontario! Record heat and humidity!!! 
A great time to stay inside and play! (or lay by the pool!).

This week at Try it on Tuesday, our challenge for the next 2 weeks is Summertime!

I choose to make some summertime gift card holders. 
I used Carta Bella's Summer Market paper line for these. I never know what to do with those 3"x 4" journal cards, so I added them to the fronts of my card holders! 



And, here is the inside of the front part of the card! It opens from the back for me to write a little note on!


The others are the same! I plan on giving them to a few friends or them to buy a cool drink to refresh from this heat!

Hope you are all having a safe, cool Summer!

Stay creative!
