Thank you, Darnell for all of your hard work in pulling this Challenge together~it delightfully forces me to delve into the mountain of schtuff in my craft room that I can't seem to STOP buying!

I made this card for a friend's birthday (she is a snowbird and really enjoys the tropical weather here), it qualifies for this NBUS:  
* The Adirondack chair is one of two dies from Impression Obsession
* The "seagulls" flying overhead are part of  an EK Success corner punch  
* I do believe the Large Palm Tree should be included here as well.  It is a wood block stamp I bought at a yard sale for $2.50 about 8 years ago. I'm not sure it was ever used,  if it was, it's been a couple three years (gasp).  It's from All Night Media~are still around?

  11. Haha, a couple three years. I'm chuffed that you pay attention and enjoy my little lingo, Helen! Your summer scene is SO inviting with all those "must have" elements so perfectly employed! And hello? Those seagulls from the punch? Geeneeus!! I'm counting the palm tree, too! It is literally the best one I have ever seen. I have a feeling you are going to be using it more often now that you have rediscovered it! Thank you so much for your VERY kind words, your friendship, and for playing in my NBUS Challenge #4!! Hugs, Darnell
