Sunshiney Day

What a beautiful day today, a nice relief to the grey days experienced here recently. Although I am a self professed 'rain lover', you know the feeling, wrapped up in a duvet, the rain tinkling against the windows and you are snuggled up with that special someone watching a good movie and all is right with the world, but I do forget how much I enjoy the sun and how it can lift your mood, so I sat down today and knew that I wanted to make something yellow to reflect the happy vibe (even though I have a horrible week ahead of me at work being on call from 8am - 11pm)

The flower came from a recent kit, it's one of those pieces of stash that you look at and think it is too pretty to use, I do that a lot and therefore end up with lots of pretty things which never make it onto a card or scrap book page, I need to make a mid-year resolution to start cutting into that pretty paper and use all those sweet embellishments.

I love making little cards, I made these ones from the offcuts from the first card and added some sunflower toppers that I bought on sale a few years ago. I'm thinking of creating a whole bunch of these using a couple of sheets of co-ordinating papers and some mixed sentiments as a little gift for my mum.

I think that about does it for today. Hope you and yours enjoyed a wonderful weekend!
