Summertime (I know, it's barely spring)

Hi everyone! I have a quick post sharing a card for today's Unity's Friends with Flair
The cute summer stamp is from the set, All Smiles.  It's such a fun happy image -I really love this kit.  It's almost 2 years old now, but it's still a goodie!  I colored it with copics and kept it pretty simple.  I made this card for magazine submission awhile ago, it didn't get accepted and I forgot about it.  I thought FWF would be a perfect time to share it.  And, yes, it does make me long for hot summer days!
The fun paper is from one of my favorite MME lines, The Sweetest Thing, "Tangerine" pad and is perfect for summer.  The orange/white striped piece on the left is the coordinating MME "Tangerine" washi tape, but you can find the same tape in their Decorative Tape orange/pink set.
That's if for now, thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!  Here is a close up picture.
