A sunny card on a cloudy day...

It is a cloudy day here in Seattle-land and it may even rain, again!  I know for some of you stuck in the heat and droughts in other locations this would be heaven-sent!  But here in Seattle we are lucky if we get 4 weeks of real sunny summer days (usually in August, each year).  While it doesn't bother me most of the time the summer season is when it sort of does!  So I thought I would make a sunny feeling card today to use for a friend's birthday that is coming up.

Thanks for taking a look! Rainy or Sunny, Hot or Cold - Enjoy your day!  Each one is such a gift and a blessing!

A card for: The Play Date Cafe challenge #142

Hello,
Today, thanks to an incredibly beautiful post on my friend Kara Lynn's blog HERE I was inspired to make a card for the Play Date Cafe challenge #142!  This is the first time I have joined this challenge I believe and I just love the photo inspiration.  These warm summer colors appealed to me as soon as I saw them...perhaps because it is overcast and grey here in Seattle today!  So thanks Kara!!!! You warmed up my dreary day! :)

Here is the inspiration photo and the link to The Play Date Cafe's blog:
