School is almost out and summer is right around the corner. I decided to use stamps from the Cocktails II set. Summer is such a great time for outdoor parties and, of course, a few tropical drinks, so, keeping that in mind, here is the card I am showing you today!!!


This would make a wonderful party invitation, don't you think!!!

5 O’Clock Somewhere 3463-417A
Bahama Breeze 3464-417K
