Welcome to this week's Flashback Friday!! Today we are flashing back to 2004 for the fun set Sparkling Summer.
I think this is such a cute summer stamp set! I thought now is the perfect time to pull it off the shelf and do a little stamping. Here's the card I came up with.
I am still into the clean and simple cards. I am liking the look of a simple white circle with an image and no matting. For this card it works well since the background is a soft color, Soft Sky. I added in Baked Brown Sugar for contrast and the flip flops on the side balance things out. I stamped the images on Glossy White (still bummed about it retiring) and colored them in with blender pens off my ink pads. It took me a minute to figure out a sentiment for this card. I ended up using Happy Retirement from Teeny Tiny Wishes, seemed perfect for a beach chair card!
Thanks for checking out my flashback card for this week! I have a group a ladies that are going to be joining me for a Flashback Friday blog hop in the near future, these flashbacks have become quite popular!

Love, love this card! I so enjoy your Flashback Friday shares! Thank you for the inspiration!
I love (and appreciate) clean and simple cards.. I have a hard time with them because I always want to add more. This is a very cute card, I love how the flip flops balance out the banners!
Nicole, I have asolutely loved your Flashback Friday cards! I have a bunch of old retired Stampin' Up sets that are wonderful and I have forgotten all about them. You have made me take a new fresh look at them! Thank-you!
I was hoping someone would do this flashback since SU is celebrating 25 yrs. I think one week it should also include who uses the oldest stamp set. Love it Nicole, genius girl just genius.
Love your card Nicole. goes to show you our stamps don't go out of style
