It looks like we might be getting some ugly weather on the East Coast today and tomorrow so I thought I would “switch up the seasons” and bring some happy flowers your way!
Now how about this super clean and simple card!
It just makes you think of sunshine and just think about how you could change up the sentiment to make all different types of cards…birthday’s – thinking of you and like this one…thank you!
This sentiment comes from the Lots of Thanks Stamp Set…and it's a blue ribbon winner in my eyes! I love all of the different fonts – a perfect set to simply say "thanks"!

I feel like I have been sharing with you so many holiday ideas but as the saying goes….’tis the season! I will have some more holiday ideas coming your way this week so please pop back daily!
Let’s get to this sunshine card!
- The base is from my favorite…the note card size – 3 ½” X 5” ….I just think that this is a sweet size to write a note!
- Pulling out the Simply Scoring Tool, I scored 3 lines to add some interest. I scores at 1 ½”, 1 6/8” and 2”. Doesn’t this give a great effect and soooo easy!
- I already knew the liner that I was going to use for this card…and that is what dictated the colors of the focal flowers! The colors I used were Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Island Indigo!
- I decided to use something that I rarely use and chances are you are in the same boat! When I see the end result…I simply say why do I not use this more often? It is soooo easy and a great little die to use up scraps! It is the Floral Fusion Sizzlits and it is just $5.50!!!

- I simply attached them with the lifesavers…Mini Glue Dots! WOW – these are time-savers galore!
- To the center of the flower, I popped out a simple circle from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack, this needs to be a “must punch set for you” WHY? - easy…little shapes ALWAYS come in handy!!!

- Next and lastly, I put a coordinating candy dot to the center, you could skip this, but I loved the look!
- Envelope time…the Gingham Garden Designer Series Paper was the perfect choice for this cheery card! Remember I have shares with you before…most of the time – I pick my liner to dictate the card I will making!!!

- The Envelope Liner Framelit is the tool of the year in my opinion…please make sure that Santa brings it to you….I know you have been good!
I am hoping that this card of sunshine will jinx the weather-gods and save us from snow/freezing rain! I truly love living on a farm…BUT when we have icky weather….it is not much fun! Breaking up water troughs is not my favorite thing to do and with 5 dogs….that is 20 paws to wipe off when they come in the house!
Please pop back this week as I shared before I have lots of fun holiday goodies that you can easily whip up to continue to put smiles on your friends and loved ones!
Enjoy the day, do a quick “Click Here” to shop away and go have fun! Enjoy the day….and
Until tomorrow!!!
