Floating By

I know it's getting cold out, but I thought I'd make a card to bring back the lazy days of Summer. I'm entering my card in 2 challenges this time.  The two are the bi-monthly challenge at the Hambo Hoedown (#137) "Clean and Simple" and the weekly challenge at Freshly Made Sketches (#111).


Here's my card.

Love this card Greg! This image always makes me want to be floating in a pool with a drink in hand, but like Jenn... It is so cold here, I think I'd like to have a drink in hand by a fire! :) Thanks for joining us again at the Hoedown!
