To kick off the fun this week Caly has a fabulous S’more the Merrier/Forest Backdrop card and video tutorial! You can watch the video below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.

Thanks for watching!


Caly and her family love to make s’mores! So, the S’more the Merrier set has her thinking of this fun summer activity! She used Mountain Stencil to begin building this happy scene! Then she added the Forest Backdrop to frame the S’more the Merrier critters who are enjoying the gooey treats!

Megan‘s fun Reveal Wheel card features a cool underwater scene with Duh-nuh Flip-Flop, Mermaid for You Flip-Flop and Ocean Shell-fie! She use Reveal Wheel Square Add-On to leave room at the top for the cute greeting combining Finley’s ABCs and Critter Chatter!

Joy‘s gorgeous floral arrangement puts the spotlight on Happy Hibiscus, Tropical Leaves and Tropical Vine Borders! She used bright tropical colors of cardstock backed with Watercolor Wishes Rainbow paper in Larimar. She added a sweet birthday message from Happy Happy Happy!

Karin created the cutest birthday card with our adorable little Tiny Birthday Friends! I love the fun grid design she used and the happy colors!

Samantha‘s tropical design starts with an amazing alcohol ink background! She cut the panel using Simple Stripes: Diagonal to add even more wonderful pattern! She colored the toucans with Zig markers to go with the tropical theme. Then she added them to a Magic Iris Tropical Leaves Add-On die cut from vellum.

  1. I like to swim during the summer months on a sunny day. I also love to BBQ with the family. Gorgeous cards from the design team. 💖

      1. We always went Camping when I was a kid and we continued this with our girls and as soon as the tend is built up summer has officially started. Of course there’s a BBQ included to make the day even more perfect.

  2. I love walking along the waves with my family and reading a book under an umbrella with the sound of seagulls and waves in the background.

  3. Any kind of water fun is awesome and then sitting in the sun to warm up, dry off and to just relax and listen to great music is my kind of day! Loved the cards, so cute.

  6. I like to visit National Parks in the summer. Beautiful examples from the design team, as always!

  7. My community has a lovely pool and I always enjoy spending time at the pool with friends and family.

  11. I usually enjoy playing in volleyball leagues throughout the summer, but for the last 2 years, they have been canceled due to COVID. Looking forward for the Fall leagues to start, though!

  14. Great cards! I loved Caly’s video – thank you! In the summer I love to be in the water – swimming or scuba!

  15. I love it being light enough outside that I can walk my dog at 430 AM and that’s there is still daylight after 9pm. All that daylight helps me be productive!

  19. I absolutely love to take my dog swimming in the river. He has so much fun swimming and I love to be on the beach and get exercise!

  20. I love working in my garden in the summer. All the beautiful flowers look so pretty and make me happy. After an afternoon of working in the garden, sitting on my swing in front of my fire pit with a nice cold drink in hand provides the perfect ending to a wonderful summer day!

  26. Our community has “open air weekends” where they shut down the main street to traffic and set up tables outside. It draws a good crowd. There is live music, places to eat and drink and racks and tables from the local shops. They even have sprinklers for the kids and games like corn hole and giant connect 4. I love being out there and seeing people!

  31. I love spending the day at the beach with my husband and kids- they have so much fun swimming and playing in the sand and listening to the sound of the waves is very calming for me.

  40. My favorite summer activity used to be going on vacation and doing weekend getaways to places in my state that I had never been. Now that I have chronic back pain issues and can’t sit for long, I like spending time with my family and crafting when I can.

  42. My fave summer activity is sitting outside on
    the deck (on cooler days), reading a book
    and enjoying the weather. Love the little

  52. Camping, making s’mores and sitting by the fire are my favorite things! That’s why your s’more stamps were just haves for me! 😍

  268. My favorite summer activity is definitely camping…..Where I live there are too many forest fires and smoke to camp now though. So I will make cards with camping activities instead.

  270. My favorite summer activity is enjoying a refreshing frozen treat at our local natural vegan ice cream spot!

  271. I love to go on adventures that I’ve never experienced before. Just finished a boat trip up into a remote area on Vancouver Island where I live. Learned how to bait a prawn trap, drop and later pull it up and have prawns in a stir fry an hour later. Not bad for a 64 yr old – came home to my Lawn Fawn order and am organizing a card making weekend when I come back next week from a quilting retreat at a lake a few hours away. Making up for lost time now that we can get out more.

  277. When I used to live in a place with a swimming pool, my favorite activity was swimming in the summer! Spend hours in that water and play water games with everyone there.

  279. Walking along the ocean in the early morning or just after sunset. My other favorite summertime thing is making (and drinking) white wine sangria with nectarines, mangos and Rainer cherries! Great cards TFS!!
