You Make Me Happy When Skies are Gray

The weather recently has been horrid - so wet and miserable.  Luckily I have not been affected by flooding like so many people have, my heart goes out to them.  The weather did however encourage me take a second look at this lovely sentiment from the See Ya Later Sale-a-Bration Stamp Set.  You make me happy when skies are gray - something so appropriate for a lot of people I am fortunate enough to call my friends who have helped me endure my personal rain storms in recent months. 

I used the Banner Framelits to cut out the sentiment which had been stamped in Coastal Cabana.  I then shaded the banner to make some extra clouds while still leaving a boarder using the technique I shared with you here.  The cute little flower is from the lovely Petite Petals Stamp Set which comes with a matching punch for added ease of use.  I have popped a left over sequin from the Mini Memories Simply Created Album Kit in the midde and topped it with a Beruda Bay Candy Dot.  The flower sits on some of the scrummy Gold Baker Twine and the Patterned Paper is from the lovely Fresh Prints Paper Stack and is mounted on a coordinating Baked Brown Sugar layer.

If you would like to send a card like this to someone who has brightened your world what better week to do it than Valentine's Week.  You can earn the See Ya Later Stamp Set for Free as part of this year's Sale-a-Bration - what is not to love about Free Stamps that help you tell people they matter to you!  You can find all the details here.
