Inspired By #131 - summer please!

I love the 'photo stage' these party-throwers have set up here - isn't it fun?  I know I have more than a few friends who have the perfect set for this Inspired By - summer please!  Is it YOU?

Me?  not so much... but I did find a 'cheerful' little kitty that is sending congrats to a worthy graduate... and the perfect patterned paper:

Thanks go to my friend Marcia who sent me these darling streamers for
my little party animal!
 
Aren't those Hemstitch Circles divine for adding interest?  This IB131 is truly one to celebrate... come party with us!!  You'll find even more inspiration from my teamies!
