I heard on the news yesterday that as of June 21st, the first
day of summer, we've lost 62 minutes of daylight and
in the next month, we will have lost 81 more!!
So I had to get this card done and posted!!!
Actually, I made it specifically for the new challenge at
This week, CAS-ual Fridays is bringing you a '2fer'
as we team up with Clean & Simple's 'Fall-to-layout' sketch.
This little crab looks quite happy enjoying his summer!

obvious, but I had too much fun with these images
