Summer Subway Art Tile

I know this is a little late, but it's better late than never...right?!  And you all know how much I love creating subway art, I just had to make one for the summa-time! 

Summer love!
I used my newest Cricut font cartridge, Simply Sweet, for everything except for "Summer".  Since I was too late to purchase the SCAL program (Cricut no longer works with SCAL), I decided I needed to find cartridges cheaper than what they normal are.  You have to watch, but typically you can find them cheaper at Amazon.com or Ebay.com.  I bought this particular font cartridge on Ebay for $21 (free shipping, woot woot!), but it took me a little while with the bidding wars.  I love the font of this cartridge, it's playful, which was perfect for a summer tile.

Love it, so fun!
I'll eventually make one for Fall/Autumn and Winter.  Here a couple of my other seasonal subway art tiles that I've created... (I've also created more for gifts)

Patriotic Tile...will be great for 4th of July, Labor Day, and Memorial Day!
