Hello, Friend!

I got this butterfly die recently from Cheery Lynn.  Isn't it pretty?   Thought I'd whip up a quick little card to showcase it. 
 The red carnation "Affection" image is from Iralamija's shop.  She has some very pretty things in her store.  I've really loved everything I've bought from her.

We had a little break in our heat wave earlier in the week.  But, 100 degree weather is back, right along with all that humidity.  I heard a newscaster say that July in Oklahoma City was the hottest July on record of any city in the U.S. ever!  I believe that must be true!  Hope you're having a nice weekend and staying cool!

    BTW - I just finished a Dean Koontz book called "Life expectancy". Have you read that one.. It was really good..

    That shop's vintage images are all so neat! I'm glad you got a little break in your weather. We got lucky and had highs in the 80s most of last week! Looks like this week will be warmer, though.

    Paul's out working on our kitchen garden. We planted 12 bean plants last weekend and they've already come up! I've got to get some cabbages started inside today, as well.
