Smell the Flowers!

Summertime is almost here! When I think of summer, I think of hot, humid days, gardens in bloom, and trying to eat outdoors without bees or mosquitoes making nuisances of themselves!  The Stampendous Design Team theme this week is "Have a Mice Summer!" These cute little Bumble Bunnies from House Mouse Designs, paired with the great Daisy Field Stamp fit the theme perfectly! It seems like they just want to stop and smell the flowers!
