This is how it looks with the top triangle opened.

We will celebrate Kathleen's birthday on July 26.

Summertime brings me thoughts of the ocean 

where I spent many a days growing up on Long Island.

I've had this Stampendous stamp for quite some time 

and I thought it was time for it to see some ink!

The background is a resist technique that I haven't used in a very long time.
