Welcome to Miami

It's gettin' a little sunny out there!   It is time for the Unidentified Image Swap on SCS.   Our hostess for this round of the swap is, Kelly.  

Kelly, sent us an image from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.  The image is Florence.  This image was to inspire us to think of the beach, ocean and Florida.  Well, I know that Kelly really likes bold colors, so I had to use some of them.  Then I remembered some DP that she had gifted in a card kit.   I went on the hunt!  I came up with both papers to create the card with.

I had to laugh when I checked in with our group to see how they created with the same image.   I interpreted Florence to have on old school tube socks and colored as such.  I remember thinking that it was odd that she was 'beachy' and wearing socks.  Oh. My. Goodness.   I think they were supposed to be capri pants for pity sake!   LOL   Well, my Flo has cold feet!  Yeah, that's it!

You know that I usually have to listen to some music when I craft.  Well, this image and theme was Florida.   It made me think of this song....the video made me giggle!    I do hope I did our Old School Tube Sock Flo just a little justice!


Card entered in the following challenge(s):  Make it Monday

Love it, love it, LOVE IT!!!!! ROTFLMAO - I did the sock thing too, and then, when it was too late and my cards were sent, found out that she was wearing capris. Duh, light dawns on Marblehead!
